Moon is passing first ∠3° of ♊ Gemini tropical zodiac sector.
5 days after Full Moon
Previous main lunar phase is the Full Moon before 5 days on 10 September 2060 at 09:44.
Harvest Moon before 5 days
Next Full Moon is the Hunter Moon of October 2060 after 24 days on 9 October 2060 at 18:41.
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 ∠1960"
Lunar disc appears visually 2.6% wider than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1960" and ∠1909".
Lunation 750 / 1703
The Moon is 20 days old and navigating from the middle to the last part of the current synodic month. This is lunation 750 of Meeus index or 1703 from Brown series.
The length of this lunation is 29 days, 14 hours and 57 minutes and it is 2 hours and 35 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 2 hours and 13 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 4 hours and 50 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠119.2°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit at the beginning of this lunation cycle is ∠119.2° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠149.6°.
Moon after perigee
3 days since point of perigee on 12 September 2060 at 02:40 in ♈ Aries the lunar orbit is getting widen while the Moon is moving away from the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 12 days until the Moon reaches the point of next apogee on 27 September 2060 at 17:42 in ♏ Scorpio.
The Moon is 365 787 km(227 290 mi) away from Earth and getting further over the next 12 days until the point apogee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 406 086 km(252 330 mi).
Moon after ascending node
2 days after ascending node on 13 September 2060 at 04:20 in ♈ Aries the Moon is positioned north of the ecliptic over the following 11 days until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from North to South in descending node on 26 September 2060 at 21:59 in ♎ Libra.
10 days since the last southern standstill on 5 September 2060 at 02:26 in ♑ Capricorn when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-27.952° the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next 2 days to face maximum declination of ∠28.029° at the point of next northern standstill on 17 September 2060 at 19:05 in ♊ Gemini.
In 9 days on 24 September 2060 at 15:53 in ♍ Virgo 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.
