It's also relatively frequent to have impossible sun/moon combinations, like thin waning moon high in the sky at midnight. My father also told me he had read in a book by Lobsang Rampa that he saw Mercury near the zenith... which is as impossible*
[*] Mercury and thin waning/waxing moons are always close to the sun, they cannot be high up when the sun is "low down".
And it's fun when you see these thin crescents in movies with stars
inside the obscured portion
