Occultations of stars by the moon

During the year, the moon occults sometimes stars and planets. Because the moon is close to the earth, occultations of stars are not visible everywhere, where the moon is at occultation time over the horizon. Because of the moving nodes of the moon, in each years other stars are occulted.

Occultations of stars brighter than 3.5 mag for the latitude of London, UK (times are valid for London, UK)
