A little bit off-topic, but... > The moon looks the same across the world at any given time; that's one thing that doesn't invert when you cross north/south. ^_^ Not quite. Suppose the moon is directly above the equator and 115°E (a bit north of Samarinda in Borneo) and the sun is directly above the equator and 25°E (near Kisangani, D.R. Congo) -- a waxing half-moon. In Borneo the moon is nearly directly above, and lit on its west half. In Perth, Australia (around 32°S and 115°E), the moon is in the north, so its left half is lit. But in Beijing (close to 40°N and 115°E) the moon is in the south, so its right half is lit. In Nairobi, Kenya, the moon is just above the horizon in the east and its top half is lit. But in Nauru in the equatorial Pacific Ocean the moon is low-ish in the west, and its bottom half is lit. -- GitHub Notification of comment by dbaron Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/4627#issuecomment-568941860 using your GitHub account
