SUMMARY
The moon appears to be rendered with the incorrect illumination.  Over the past few days I have observed that kstars appears to render too much of the surface being illuminated.  For instance, when the moon was 80% illuminated (Nov 11, 2024 ~23:00 UTC), kstars visually rendered ~90% of the surface illuminated.  Features that should not be visible were shown as illuminated.

Viewing the moon with Xplanet appeared to show the proper illumination profile.
