What is the best time of night to get direct moonlight?

Question

I live in Dallas, Texas, and there is a full moon out tonight I think, but it's just hard for me to find it and get direct moonlight. I'm not sure if I'm going out too early or too late to see the moon. Does anyone know what's the ideal time to find it?

Answer 1

Wait about two weeks.  The time is dependent on the moon phase.

Answer 2

I don't know if the time matters,but I'm sure the fullness of the moon does!

Answer 3

From Dallas, the Moon doesn't come up until 12.40 a.m. tomorrow morning.
