Worm Moon after 15 days
Next Full Moon is the Worm Moon of March 2014 after 15 days on 16 March 2014 at 17:09.
Spring tide
There is high New Moon ocean tide on this date. Combined Sun and Moon gravitational tidal force working on Earth is strong, because of the Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy alignment.
Apparent angular diameter
Lunar disc is not visible from Earth. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1946" and ∠1936".
New lunation 175 / 1128
At 08:00 on this date the Moon completes the old and enters a new synodic month with lunation 175 of Meeus index or lunation 1128 from Brown series.
The length of the lunation is 29 days, 10 hours and 45 minutes. It is 45 minutes shorter than the next lunation's length. The lengths of the following synodic months are going to increase with the lunar orbit true anomaly getting closer to the value it has at the point of New Moon at apogee (∠180°).
Lunation length shorter than mean
The length of the current synodic month is 1 hour and 59 minutes shorter than the mean synodic month length. It is 4 hours and 10 minutes longer compared to 21st century's shortest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠25.1°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit is ∠25.1° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠46.9°.
Moon after perigee
1 day since point of perigee on 27 February 2014 at 19:52 in ♒ Aquarius the lunar orbit is getting widen while the Moon is moving away from the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 10 days until the Moon reaches the point of next apogee on 11 March 2014 at 19:46 in ♋ Cancer.
The Moon is 368 400 km(228 913 mi) away from Earth and getting further over the next 10 days until the point apogee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 405 367 km(251 883 mi).
Moon before descending node
9 days after ascending node on 20 February 2014 at 03:28 in ♎ Libra the Moon is positioned north of the ecliptic over the following 3 days until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from North to South in descending node on 4 March 2014 at 17:45 in ♈ Aries.
5 days since the last southern standstill on 24 February 2014 at 01:24 in ♐ Sagittarius when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-19.175° the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next 7 days to face maximum declination of ∠19.084° at the point of next northern standstill on 8 March 2014 at 22:54 in ♊ Gemini.
