Synodic month extreme durations
Hi!

Back in 2014 (!), you did a major update of the page Lunar month, in which, among other things, you mention that “the actual time between lunations may range from about 29.18 to about 29.93 days.” However, you provided no source for this information.

Countless websites have copied this information from Wikipedia without questioning it.

However, the actual extreme durations for the synodic month, according to Jean Meeus, are “between about 29.27 and 29.83 days” (More Mathematical Astronomy Morsels, Willmann-Bell, 2002, p. 23).

I have updated Lunar month accordingly, but I am curious as to where you got the information from, that it’s 29.18 to 29.93 days…

Regards,
