A Conversation for Lunar Phases
Festival Moon

The so called festival lunar month, the period which Jewish and Islamic people follow so speak, is 29 days 12 hours 44 minutes 2.8 seconds.
And to find this precise period, cube root half the number 89,000,000 and divide by 12 lunar months = 29.530587756 days.
So its nice to find one natural number being the very mechanism that sets and controls Moon time.
