  Positions géocentriques de la Lune 
Description: This software traces the position of our satellite with a precision of a few arcseconds. Please notice that for the moment the calculations are not topocentric, meaning that the parallax is not taken into account for an observer located at the surface of the Earth.

  MoonCalc  Popular
Description: Everything you may ever want to know about the Moon: "position, age, phase, orientation, appearance and visibility for any given date, time and location on Earth. It also provides the Julian Day Number, Magnetic Declination, time and direction of moonrise and moonset, interval between sunset and moonset, interval between sunrise and moonrise, date/time of astronomical new moon (conjunction), full moon".

The program also produces several graphical animations, which can be printed out: showing the position of the Moon on a star chart and in a simulated local sky. A close-up of the near side of the Moon is also produced, as well as the drawing of world maps showing areas of the globe where the young Moon is likely to be seen.

Runs under DOS and or Windows.

  Lunar Occultation WorkBench  Popular
Description: Program developed by the the Dutch Occultation Association available in two versions: «Lite» and «Pro». Exclusively consecrated to lunar occultations.

«The Professional edition does everything that the Lite edition can do and more: it includes over 476.000 stars of the Guide Star Catalog 1.1 ( GSC ) which lie in the Zodiacal zone. Both editions can handle the large lunar limb databases Watts and MoonLimb. LOW 3.1 is an update of version 3.0 which was able to automatically download the USNO's Delta T table. Unfortunately the USNO no longer maintains this file and a different (and also automatic!) solution was created.

You can record your observations and send them by email to be reduced by the International Lunar Occultation Centre in Japan. You can, among many features, also view the Moon and the planet or star, as they would appear at the time of occultation. The moon's phase and even the colouring of the moon due to the Earth's shadow during a lunar eclipse are taken into account! You can see the field of stars in which the occultation events take place. Another option is a zoomed in portion of the lunar limb to show you the mountains and valleys the star will pass during occultation... Printing selected predictions is allowed.»

You can get additional moon limb files in its homepage (professional use).

The title above links to the Pro version. You can get the Lite version here.
