See it on NASA's siteThis slender crescent Moon was recorded at a tender age of 34 hours and 18 minutes on May 9th. The Moon's age is calculated from New Moon to New Moon, never exceeding about 29.5 days. A young Moon, though faint, can be a rewarding sight for skygazers, visible low in the western sky after sunset.
