The Story of the Vaad Lehatzolas
Nidchei Yisroel Additional Calendar Information: The earliest time of Kiddush Levonoh -- Nisan The time of Kiddush Levonoh everywhere in the world begins when it is Shabbos, 11:08 A.M., 3 Nisan (Jan. 20), a little more than three full days after the molad. The actual time in most of the world is therefore Motzei Shabbos from the beginning of the night, the eve of 4 Nisan. Nonetheless, people living in the extreme eastern countries can make a brocho on the moon only from 7:08 P.M. The astronomical new moon follows the molad this month by nine hours and forty-nine minutes, and is at 8:48 P.M. In Eretz Yisroel on Motzei Shabbos there and less than three full days from the astronomical new moon until the setting of the moon. However, during the three days following the astronomical new moon the moon passes near its lowest point (perigee) and advances quickly. As a result almost all of the moon's late appearance of approximately ten hours is canceled. This information is significant for those who act according to the Chazon Ish and do not make a brocho on the moon until it is big and high in the sky.
