Moon is passing about ∠19° of ♐ Sagittarius tropical zodiac sector.
3 days after Full Moon
Previous main lunar phase is the Full Moon before 3 days on 2 May 2007 at 10:09.
Flower Moon before 3 days
Next Full Moon is the Strawberry Moon of June 2007 after 26 days on 1 June 2007 at 01:04.
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 ∠1813"
Lunar disc appears visually 4.8% narrower than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1813" and ∠1902".
Lunation 90 / 1043
The Moon is 17 days old and navigating from the middle to the last part of the current synodic month. This is lunation 90 of Meeus index or 1043 from Brown series.
The length of this lunation is 29 days, 7 hours and 51 minutes and it is 5 minutes longer 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 shorter than mean
The length of the current synodic month is 4 hours and 53 minutes shorter than the mean synodic month length. It is 1 hour and 16 minutes longer compared to 21st century's shortest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠4°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit at the beginning of this lunation cycle is ∠4° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠19.8°.
Moon after apogee
5 days since point of apogee on 30 April 2007 at 10:57 in ♎ Libra the lunar orbit is getting narrow while the Moon is moving towards the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 10 days until the Moon reaches the point of next perigee on 15 May 2007 at 15:10 in ♉ Taurus.
The Moon is 395 434 km(245 711 mi) away from Earth and getting closer over the next 10 days until the point perigee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 359 393 km(223 316 mi).
Moon before ascending node
7 days after descending node on 27 April 2007 at 15:27 in ♍ Virgo the Moon is positioned south of the ecliptic over the following 6 days until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from South to North in ascending node on 11 May 2007 at 23:08 in ♓ Pisces.
13 days since the last northern standstill on 21 April 2007 at 13:36 in ♊ Gemini when the Moon has reached North declination of ∠28.446° the lunar orbit is extending southward over the next day to face maximum declination of ∠-28.341° at the point of next southern standstill on 6 May 2007 at 04:22 in ♐ Sagittarius.
In 11 days on 16 May 2007 at 19:27 in ♉ Taurus the Moon is going to be in a New Moon geocentric conjunction with the Sun and thus forming the next Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy alignment.
