The Quran does not mention 3 times salah; instead it gives us periods in 24 hours for the purpose of Salah and it's left to us to extract the times for salah from these periods.
I think the n 3 ideed has its origin in the pagan religions, like the 3 so called daughers of Allah mentioned in the Qur'an, and this number was later adopted by many, including Muslims, like washing the hands and face and feet three times when doing wadu.Allah knows best

The fact is this that a full moon lasts a few minutes not three days.
a The lunar cycle/orbit lasts about 29.53 day (29 days, 12 hours, 44 minutes). The apparent change in size of the moon is due to the eccentricity of the lunar orbit.Okay...very basic level of intelligence here, but HUH? Why do so many keep saying a full moon lasts a few minutes? From what I see from a lunar calendar, a full moon lasts several days. And I am pretty sure I have been able to look in the sky many a nights, for several hours and see...a full moon. I don't think I have ever heard or seen a full moon appear and then disappear within a few minutes time.

Maybe you missed but I gave the link you can see for yourself all phases of moon there.
A full moon does not last for three days or several days even for an earth bound observer, you would notice the difference if you look carefully.
