Moon phase and lunation details

Moonrise and moonset

Moon rises at sunset and sets at sunrise. It is visible all night and it is high in the sky around midnight.

Moon in ♒ Aquarius

Moon is passing about ∠19° of ♒ Aquarius tropical zodiac sector.

Apparent angular diameter ∠1799"

Lunar disc appears visually 5.2% narrower than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1799" and ∠1896".

It is Sturgeon Moon

The Full Moon this days is the Sturgeon of August 2035.

Upcoming main Moon phases

Spring tide

There is high Full Moon ocean tide on this date. Combined Sun and Moon gravitational tidal force working on Earth is strong, because of the Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy alignment.

Lunation 440 / 1393

The Moon is 14 days old. Earth's natural satellite is moving through the middle part of current synodic month. This is lunation 440 of Meeus index or 1393 from Brown series.

Synodic month length 29.37 days

The length of the lunation is 29 days, 8 hours and 48 minutes. It is 2 hours and 19 minutes shorter than the next lunation's length. The lengths of the following synodic months are going to increasing with the 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 56 minutes shorter than the mean synodic month length. It is 2 hours and 13 minutes longer compared to 21st century's shortest synodic month length.

Lunar orbit position on

True anomaly ∠25.6°

At the beginning of the lunation cycle the true anomaly is ∠25.6°. At the beginning of next synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠46.4°.

Moon after apogee

4 days after point of apogee on 14 August 2035 at 06:09 in ♐ Sagittarius. The lunar orbit is getting narrow, while the Moon is moving towards the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 11 days, until the Moon reaches the point of next perigee on 30 August 2035 at 02:28 in ♋ Cancer.

Distance to Moon 398 369 km

The Moon is 398 369 km (247 535 mi) away from Earth and getting closer over the next 11 days until the point perigee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 365 533 km (227 132 mi).

Moon before descending node

13 days after ascending node on 5 August 2035 at 09:20 in ♍ Virgo. The Moon is located north of the ecliptic over the following day, until the lunar orbit crosses from North to South in descending node on 19 August 2035 at 19:18 in ♒ Aquarius.

Draconic month

13 days since the beginning of current draconic month in ♍ Virgo, the Moon is navigating from the beginning to the first part of the cycle.

Moon after southern standstill

3 days since the previous standstill on 14 August 2035 at 22:59 in ♑ Capricorn when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-18.761°, the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next 10 days to face maximum declination of ∠18.744° at the point of next northern standstill on 28 August 2035 at 17:25 in ♊ Gemini.

Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy

The Moon is in a Full Moon geocentric opposition with the Sun and thus forming Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy alignment.
