Hi @farwest - if you’re using the times and directions of moonrise, it’s critical to know that these ALWAYS refer to the unobstructed horizon (not just in TPE, but in pretty much any app or web site).
Where it says ‘sunrise’ in these sketches, you can also substitute ‘moonrise’, ‘sunset’, ‘moonset’ etc.:
This post explains it all in a bit more detail:
If you want to know when the Moon will appear behind a mountain peak, you need to be using the Geodetics, 3D or Visual Search tools to determine that.
