[QUOTE="Jogeephus, post: 1297737, member: 4362"] I'm in the same boat. The moon's cycle has always puzzled me. Not to argue but from full to full its not 28 days but 29.5 days. What's weird is it takes the moon only 27.3 days to orbit the earth so none of this really makes much sense till you realize in the time it takes the moon to orbit the earth once the earth has traveled 45 million miles around the sun and the moon spends 2.2 days playing catch up. Talk about something that will make you dizzy just thinking about. All I know is the next Christmas moon will be in 2034 because that's how some smart person has it figured. We will also have a Blue Moon this year on May 21, 2016 [/QUOTE]
