Moon is passing about ∠5° of ♑ Capricorn tropical zodiac sector.
1 day after New Moon
Previous main lunar phase is the New Moon before 1 day on 11 December 2080 at 07:10.
Cold Moon after 14 days
Next Full Moon is the Cold Moon of December 2080 after 14 days on 26 December 2080 at 17:03.
Moderate tide
There is medium ocean tide on this date. Sun and Moon gravitational forces are not aligned, but meet at very acute angle, so their combined tidal force is moderate.
Apparent angular diameter ∠1794"
Lunar disc appears visually 8.3% narrower than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1794" and ∠1949".
Lunation 1001 / 1954
The Moon is 1 day young and navigating from the beginning to the first part of the current synodic month. This is lunation 1001 of Meeus index or 1954 from Brown series.
The length of this lunation is 29 days, 17 hours and 52 minutes and it is 1 hour and 23 minutes shorter than the upcoming 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 longer than mean
The length of the current synodic month is 5 hours and 8 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 1 hour and 55 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠119.5°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit at the beginning of this lunation cycle is ∠119.5° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠151.7°.
Moon before apogee
12 days since point of perigee on 30 November 2080 at 07:40 in ♋ Cancer the lunar orbit is getting widen while the Moon is moving away from the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 3 days until the Moon reaches the point of next apogee on 16 December 2080 at 08:18 in ♒ Aquarius.
The Moon is 399 574 km(248 284 mi) away from Earth and getting further over the next 3 days until the point apogee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 405 296 km(251 839 mi).
Moon before ascending node
7 days after descending node on 5 December 2080 at 06:12 in ♎ Libra the Moon is positioned south of the ecliptic over the following 7 days until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from South to North in ascending node on 19 December 2080 at 12:25 in ♓ Pisces.
At 02:19 the Moon is meeting its standstill point to reach South declination of ∠-28.401°. Over the upcoming 13 days the lunar orbit is going to tilt northward to face maximum declination of ∠28.412° at the point of next northern standstill in ♊ Gemini on 26 December 2080 at 07:29.
In 14 days on 26 December 2080 at 17:03 in ♊ Gemini the Moon is going to be in a Full Moon geocentric opposition with the Sun and thus forming the next Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy alignment.
