Also, the time and azimuth is different depending upon whether one means
"geometric moonrise" or moonrise as viewed through the refracting
atmosphere.

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for
the good of its victims may be the most oppressive.
It may be better to live under robber barons than
under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber
baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may
at some point be satiated: but those who torment us
for our own good will torment us without end, for they
do so with the approval of their own conscience."
C.S. Lewis 1898-1963

> Jack, I'm playing with a program called Ephemeris.
> The azimuth values I've given were based on magnetic north reference.
> The azimuth for San Francisco on June 5 is 101 degrees.
> Changing the reading to true north setting I get a reading of 117degrees.
> Don't blame me if you can't find the moon, I'm not an astronomer.
