A delicate crescent moon, its cusps diagonally inclined, sinks to the western horizon as twilight fades on Monday evening, October 19. On the following evening, a somewhat more robust crescent moon follows a similar but more delayed trek to the same setting point. From Coronado Beach or Seaport Village, watch the crescent moon sink toward and disappear behind the dark profile of the Point Loma peninsula.
