I wish I could remember where I read about this. The current extreme
north and south movements of the Moon are part of a cycle that repeats
every 18.6 years. Last month the 1st quarter Moon was almost straight
up. I think it lasts just the 2 months. It'll be late 2023 before we
see the Moon so far from the ecliptic again. It's cool to understand
the sky!
