Moon is passing about ∠25° of ♉ Taurus tropical zodiac sector.
2 days after Last Quarter
Previous main lunar phase is the Last Quarter before 2 days on 7 July 2007 at 16:54.
Buck Moon after 19 days
Next Full Moon is the Buck Moon of July 2007 after 19 days on 30 July 2007 at 00:48.
Neap tide
There is low ocean tide on this date. Sun and Moon gravitational forces are not aligned, but meet at big angle, so their combined tidal force is weak.
Apparent angular diameter ∠1963"
Lunar disc appears visually 3.9% wider than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1963" and ∠1887".
Lunation 92 / 1045
The Moon is 25 days old and navigating from the second to the final part of the current synodic month. This is lunation 92 of Meeus index or 1045 from Brown series.
The length of this lunation is 29 days, 8 hours and 51 minutes and it is 2 hours and 8 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 shorter than mean
The length of the current synodic month is 3 hours and 53 minutes shorter than the mean synodic month length. It is 2 hours and 16 minutes longer compared to 21st century's shortest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠38.7°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit at the beginning of this lunation cycle is ∠38.7° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠64.2°.
Moon after perigee
1 day since point of perigee on 9 July 2007 at 21:38 in ♉ Taurus the lunar orbit is getting widen while the Moon is moving away from the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 11 days until the Moon reaches the point of next apogee on 22 July 2007 at 08:43 in ♏ Scorpio.
The Moon is 365 239 km(226 949 mi) away from Earth and getting further over the next 11 days until the point apogee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 404 152 km(251 128 mi).
Moon after ascending node
5 days after ascending node on 5 July 2007 at 01:39 in ♓ Pisces the Moon is positioned north of the ecliptic over the following 7 days until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from North to South in descending node on 18 July 2007 at 00:18 in ♍ Virgo.
10 days since the last southern standstill on 29 June 2007 at 15:41 in ♐ Sagittarius when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-28.215° the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next 2 days to face maximum declination of ∠28.251° at the point of next northern standstill on 12 July 2007 at 16:38 in ♊ Gemini.
In 4 days on 14 July 2007 at 12:04 in ♋ Cancer 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.
