How early at night may one recite Kiddush Levanah?

Hi,

Kiddush Levanah is to be recited at night; therefore, we do not say it during "bein hashemashot," during twilight.

There is some dispute as to how long twilight extends. One approach is to wait until at least 36 minutes after sunset, while others wait until the time we mark the end of Shabbat.

(Mishneh Berurah 426:2)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
