According to Geoscience Australia (http://www.ga.gov.au/geodesy/astro/m.../phase2010.jsp), the full moon in Australia is on FEB. 28. 2010 at 16 h 35 m.

The only month in recorded history that did not have full moon was on FEB 1865.

Hi Elizabeth! That time is UT. Here in the east, I'm UT+11 so that pushes the full moon into March. Even in the furthest west of Australia, the time zone is UT+8, which still pushes it into March by 35 min!!

Cheers -
