Moon is passing about ∠17° of ♓ Pisces tropical zodiac sector.
6 days after Full Moon
Previous main lunar phase is the Full Moon before 6 days on 26 June 2010 at 11:30.
Strawberry Moon before 6 days
Next Full Moon is the Buck Moon of July 2010 after 23 days on 26 July 2010 at 01:37.
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 ∠1772"
Lunar disc appears visually 6.3% narrower than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1772" and ∠1887".
Lunation 129 / 1082
The Moon is 20 days old and navigating from the middle to the last part of the current synodic month. This is lunation 129 of Meeus index or 1082 from Brown series.
The length of this lunation is 29 days, 8 hours and 26 minutes and it is 58 minutes longer than the upcoming lunation's length. The lengths of the following synodic months are going to decrease with the lunar orbit true anomaly getting closer to the value it has at the point of New Moon at perigee (∠0° or ∠360°).
Lunation length shorter than mean
The length of the current synodic month is 4 hours and 18 minutes shorter than the mean synodic month length. It is 1 hour and 51 minutes longer compared to 21st century's shortest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠311.3°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit at the beginning of this lunation cycle is ∠311.3° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠332.7°.
Moon after apogee
1 day since point of apogee on 1 July 2010 at 10:12 in ♓ Pisces 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 13 July 2010 at 11:21 in ♌ Leo.
The Moon is 404 580 km(251 394 mi) away from Earth and getting closer over the next 10 days until the point perigee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 361 116 km(224 387 mi).
Moon after ascending node
5 days after ascending node on 27 June 2010 at 01:19 in ♑ Capricorn the Moon is positioned north of the ecliptic over the following 8 days until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from North to South in descending node on 11 July 2010 at 07:30 in ♋ Cancer.
7 days since the last southern standstill on 25 June 2010 at 05:09 in ♐ Sagittarius when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-25.038° the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next 7 days to face maximum declination of ∠25.043° at the point of next northern standstill on 9 July 2010 at 16:50 in ♊ Gemini.
In 9 days on 11 July 2010 at 19:40 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.
