The moon over Champion Heights on September 23, 2026

On the night of September 23, 2026, the moon over Champion Heights is a waxing gibbous at 90% illumination, rising at 5:53 PM toward 107° ESE — a 90%-lit disc clearing the horizon in the east. It sets at 3:49 AM.

That phase shapes the whole night. At 90% illumination the moon floods the landscape with light, washing out fainter stars but lighting foregrounds for you. For dramatic scale, shoot it low near the horizon — around moonrise at 5:53 PM — where it reads largest against buildings, hills or trees.

To keep the sky its deepest blue, work the window right after sunset (7:18 PM) into blue hour (7:38 PM – 7:46 PM), when the sky still holds colour but the moon already stands out. Champion Heights's 41.3°N latitude means the moon's nightly path — and how high it climbs — shifts with the seasons; the planner tracks tonight's exact rise, set and bearings.
