Until what day from the molad may Kiddush Levana be recited?
Synopsis
The Mechaber rules until the 16th day from the molad, not including the 16th. The Rema adds a more precise calculation: until half of 29 days, 12 hours, and 793 chalakim from the molad. Debate exists whether the 16th day itself is included.
