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 794 / 1747
The Moon is 14 days old. Earth's natural satellite is moving through the middle part of current synodic month. This is lunation 794 of Meeus index or 1747 from Brown series.
Synodic month length 29.72 days
The length of the lunation is 29 days, 17 hours and 17 minutes. It is 2 hours and 24 minutes longer than the next lunation's length. The lengths of the following synodic months are going to decreasing with the true anomaly getting closer to the value it has at the point of New Moon at perigee (∠0° or ∠360°).
Lunation length longer than mean
The length of the current synodic month is 4 hours and 33 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 2 hours and 30 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit position on
True anomaly ∠181.6°
At the beginning of the lunation cycle the true anomaly is ∠181.6°. At the beginning of next synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠206.1°.
Moon at perigee
Moon is at perigee at 05:29. It is 14 days after previous apogee on 17 March 2064 at 21:10 in ♓ Pisces. Lunar orbit is going to widen while the Moon is moving away from the Earth over the next 12 days, until point of next apogee on 14 April 2064 at 02:09 in ♓ Pisces.
Distance to Moon 357 235 km
This perigee Moon is 357 235 km (221 976 mi) away from Earth. It is 5 273 km closer than the mean perigee distance, but it is still 13 121 km further than the closest perigee of 21st century.
Moon after descending node
3 days after descending node on 29 March 2064 at 11:52 in ♌ Leo. The Moon is located south of the ecliptic over the following 9 days, until the lunar orbit crosses from South to North in ascending node on 11 April 2064 at 08:46 in ♒ Aquarius.
Draconic month
17 days since the beginning of current draconic month in ♒ Aquarius, the Moon is navigating from the second to the final part of the cycle.
Moon before southern standstill
7 days since the previous standstill on 25 March 2064 at 03:21 in ♊ Gemini when the Moon has reached North declination of ∠27.727°, the lunar orbit is extending southward over the next 5 days to face maximum declination of ∠-27.645° at the point of next southern standstill on 6 April 2064 at 15:48 in ♐ Sagittarius.
Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy
The Moon is in a Full Moon geocentric opposition with the Sun and thus forming Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy alignment.
