- Astronomical Data
Graphically displays the current phase of the moon, Julian Date (JD) and modified Julian Date (MJD),
Sun Rise/set and Moon Rise/Set, and more...
The Julian Date: Obtained by counting days from the starting point of noon on 1 January 4713 B.C.
(Julian Day zero). One way of telling what day it is with the least possible ambiguity.
- -Julian Date (JD): The Julian Day number followed by the fraction of the day elapsed since the preceding noon (1200 UT). {Example: The date 1900 January (1) 0.5 day UT corresponds to JD = 2 415 020.5
- -Modified Julian Day (MJD): Equal to the Julian day. Shifted so its origin occurs at midnight on 17 November 1858. The MJD differs from the Julian date by exactly 2 400 000.5 days.
