	Lunar Phases (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		Over the next week (roughly), it waxes through the familiar crescent phase until the "first quarter", when the direction of the Moon from the Earth is perpendicular to that of the Sun, and the eastern half of the Moon's disc is illuminated.
		During the second week it is "gibbous" - the majority of the nearside is illuminated and only a diminishing crescent remains in darkness, culminating in the "full moon" when the Moon and the Sun are on opposite sides of the Earth.
		Over the next two weeks the Moon wanes again, through gibbous to "last quarter" - when the western half-disc is in light - and on through crescent to another new moon.

	Phases of the Moon and Percent of the Moon Illuminated (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		(Click here for a list.) The two crescent and two gibbous phases are intermediate phases, each of which lasts for about a week between the primary phases, during which time the exact fraction of the Moon's disk that is illuminated gradually changes.
		During the crescent phases the percent illuminated is between 0 and 50% and during gibbous phases it is between 50% and 100%.
		For practical purposes, phases of the Moon and the percent of the Moon illuminated are independent of the location on the Earth from where the Moon is observed.

		After three great years together, the members of Gibbous have announced that they will be going their separate ways.
		Gibbous was a dark, melodic, hard rock band based out of Madison, WI who's goal was to provide every audience with an unforgettable, musical stage experience.
		Gibbous formed in April of 2003 with the purpose of creating a unique, true-to-self, original act intended to be an expressive conduit for our musicians, yet focused for the benefit of the live music fans.

	The Waning Gibbous Moon
		The waning gibbous Moon is just past full and illuminated generally from the left.
		The gibbous Moon rides across the sky for most of the night and is still above the western horizon at sunrise.
		For a few days or so after Full Moon the waning gibbous Moon appears nearly full and might be mistaken for a full Moon.

	Gibbous
		Gibbous is one of a series of steel sculptures that I have started that explores the vocabulary of form - those words with which we seek to describe the infinite variety of possible shapes.
		Gibbous describes a rounded shape, particularly the moon when convex but not full.
		The lunar theme of the gibbous top is echoed in the crescent base to the sculpture.

		Picture this: the moon, hanging "gibbous" in the velvet night sky, music and laughter tinkling in the distance, a soft breeze, the scent of gardenias, and there, your beloved, an arboreal anthropoid ape native to tropical Asia.
		"Gibbous" simply means "rounded or protruding" and comes from the Latin word meaning "hump." A gibbous moon is more than half full but not quite a full moon.
		The origin of "gibbon," the name of a type of ape found in Southeastern Asia and the East Indies, is somewhat of a mystery.

		This phase of the Moon is seen to rise sometime in the afternoon when few people are looking at the sky.
		By that time the gibbous Moon is well above the southeastern horizon.

	Waning Gibbous (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		A waning gibbous moon sails over the eastern horizon in the hours between sunset and midnight.
		If it rises late at night, you know the waning gibbous moon must set after sunrise.
		In fact, in the few days after full moon, you'll often see the waning gibbous moon in the west in early morning, floating against the pale blue sky.

	Why Gibbous? Why Hoot? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		The Gibbous Hoot is a free, welcoming, open-ended amateur performing arts jam in the afternoon, with nods to the moon.
		The goal is for artists to have a kind, well-lit (sort of), loving public space to "jam"--mostly it's music, but if people show up with visual art, literature, performance art--what a treat it is! We arrange ourselves in a circle on the floor of the room--not on the stage.
		The "gibbous" part of the Gibbous Hoot was borne out of the idea that it's fun to jam during the full moon.

		Waxing Gibbous prefers to not sound like anyone or any band in particular and takes pride in creating unique, original music.
		Waxing Gibbous formed as an acoustic act in January 2003 by three friends who've been playing music together for over ten years (Joel, Mike & John).
		JP left to pursue further education and the band embarked on a long quest of finding a bass player and incorporating an electric sound with full drum-set.

	Lunar Phases (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		It appears that the Moon repeats certain phases: there are two crescent, gibbous, and half phases each month (each cycle).
		In the Southern Hemisphere the effect is just the opposite!) Astronomers use this to distinguish between the repeated phases of the moon by referring to the waxing or waning crescent, gibbous, and half phases.
		So, Venus looks smaller when it is in its crescent phase than when it is in its gibbous phase.

		Place the image of the waxing gibbous moon on the lunar phase template directly over the southern point on the horizon template.
		When the moon is waxing gibbous, it has a 135-degree eastern elongation from the sun.
		Taking care not to move the moon image template, rotate the sun template approximately 135 degrees away from the image of the waxing gibbous moon so that the moon will be properly placed at 135 degrees east of the sun.

		The two crescent and two gibbous phases are intermediate phases, each of which lasts for about a week between the primary phases, during which time the exact fraction of the Moon's disk that is illuminated gradually changes.
		The table gives a summary of approximately when the Moon is visible and where to look (the crescent and gibbous phases are in between the table values).
		Along with a last quarter moon both a waning gibbous and crescent moon is visible before a new moon cycle starts a new on the 29th day.

		In reality, the Moon's orbit is slightly tilted, so solar eclipses are rare, not every month.

		A gibbous moon is between a full moon and a half moon, or between a half moon and a full moon.
		A half moon looks like half a circle.
		As the days go by (as it waxes to become a crescent moon, a half moon, and a gibbous moon, on the way to a full moon), the moon rises during daytime (after the sun rises), rising later each day, and it sets at nighttime, setting later and later each night.
