Kiddush Levanah on the Sixteenth

When is the last time to say kiddush levana? Can I say it tonight?

Answer:

Accoridng to Shulchan Aruch, the last time to say kiddush levana is on the night of the fifteenth day of the month. Tonight is the sixteenth. However, some poskim maintain that it can be said on the sixteenth, and therefore you should say kiddush levanah tonight, but do not complete the blessing with the name of God.
