I’m going to Morocco later this month and hope to get out into the desert to gaze at the Miky Way, something I’ve always wanted to do.
Obviously I should be looking at being out there for there for new moon, which is on 23 Nov, but looking in more detail
https://www.timeanddate.com/moon/morocco/marrakech
it appears that the moon sets quite early in the evening during that week, so would it matter if I went a bit later that week, on the 26 / 27 for instance (which would be more convienient) , when it sets at 20.56 / 22.07? If I went out after those times, would the be any light from the moon to interfere with the stars?
Probably completely misunderstanding this!
