Actual Moon

This freeware screensaver from LAVResearch displays the current phase of the moon on your screen, as seen from any geographical location on earth that you specify. You can choose from over a hundred pre-configured cities, from Amsterdam to New York, or add a custom place if you know the exact latitude and longitude. The current time, your coordinates, and the position, zodiac sign and time of rising and setting of the sun and the moon are included in text format, while the purple background lights up with stars.

    • If the "Can't write file ActualMoon.scr" error appears, you may have to restart the setup program with elevated access rights. You can do this by right-clicking on the actualmoon.exe file you downloaded above, and selecting "Run as administrator". Then repeat the above steps.
