Last full moon questions

When is the last full moon?

The last full moon is calculated for Monday, 26 October 2026 at 4:11 UTC using the site's average synodic-cycle model.

Is the full moon at the same moment worldwide?

Yes. The astronomical instant is global, but the local date and clock time differ by time zone.

Why might another almanac show a slightly different minute?

The phase instant is calculated from astronomical periodic terms and converted from Terrestrial Time to UTC. Rounding and future UTC adjustments can still create a small difference between almanacs, so the value remains labelled approximate.

Where can I check local moonrise and moonset?

Use a city moon-phase page for local horizon times and the moon shape on that city's local date.
