I just came in from outside and there is no moon. I can see all of the stars so it isn't cloudy. Where is the moon?

Please.... does anyone see the moon? I called my grandparents and they can't find it either. What is going on?

Luna eclipse?No. New moon? Maybe. Oh, I'm sorry, I was just replying to you because no one replies to my posts. Sorry, I'm not exactly sure why you can't see the moon. You live else where, but I go outside and take a look...

I think it is just rising later......................it was just a full bright moon but it was later almost in the AM before it was up.....

So nobody has stolen the moon, just wait a bit and it will smile down on you soon enough.

not yet

There was a full moon two nights ago. The lunar cycle began last night. Don't worry, things are alright and under control. It's a natural thing.

Not knowing where in the world the OP is, I'll just say for New York time, the moon is just now coming up in the horizon.

11:40pm EST

I'm in texas and the moon should have been up an hour ago. Since there was a full moon a couple of nights ago it should still be bright tonight. Shouldn't it?

(I'll assume it's not a cloudy night wherever you are~) During the year, the moon rises and sets at different times. It rises/sets early and late. Sometimes i would come outside at work, to discover that it had just gotten dark, yet it was already setting... And depending on where you are, it isn't always straight in front of you. It seems to have an odd orbit sometimes, so it will be close to the ground- visually, if you know what i mean- it seems closer to the earth. It could just be out of view. Whatever it is, the moon has not been moonjacked/ moon-napped. Don't worry about it!

4am here in ireland and the moon is shining very brightly
Clear skies and ive been outside since 12 and its been there all night Dont worry man

Texas? That explains a alot.

Just looked. It's about 5 degrees off above the eastern horizon.
It was scheduled to rise tonight at 9:34pm and should set set at 7:39am.

I went out and didn't see the moon at first, but when I spotted it looked nice. It's full, yellow, and just now coming up where I am.

Well, I sit outside a lot and always look up in the sky so tonight I was freaking out a little when I didn't see it. I guess I will wait an hour and go check it out to see if I can see it. Glad to know the moon wasn't hijacked or blown up or anything.

Well I see it now. I guess I jumped the gun.... but you know how us 'conspiracy' types are. My daughter said it must have been stuck in traffic.

Even though its 5:54 its still bright and sunny here. That's strange that you can't see the moon, I'll keep a look out myself tonight for when darkness falls.

I'm sorry but why would you think it could be gone? Were you expecting someone to say to you "Oh didn't you hear? the moon got destroyed yesterday"

Seriously get some common sense.

Um, if you went out tomorrow and the sun wasn't out you don't think that you would be curious as to what was going on? I think your comment was pretty rude.
