Moon is passing about ∠19° of ♋ Cancer tropical zodiac sector.
5 days after Last Quarter
Previous main lunar phase is the Last Quarter before 5 days on 5 August 2064 at 09:41.
Sturgeon Moon after 16 days
Next Full Moon is the Sturgeon Moon of August 2064 after 16 days on 26 August 2064 at 21:35.
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 ∠1884"
Lunar disc appears visually 0.5% narrower than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1884" and ∠1893".
Lunation 798 / 1751
The Moon is 27 days old and navigating from the second to the final part of the current synodic month. This is lunation 798 of Meeus index or 1751 from Brown series.
The length of this lunation is 29 days, 9 hours and 3 minutes and it is 41 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 3 hours and 41 minutes shorter than the mean synodic month length. It is 2 hours and 28 minutes longer compared to 21st century's shortest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠301.5°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit at the beginning of this lunation cycle is ∠301.5° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠325.7°.
Moon before perigee
7 days since point of apogee on 2 August 2064 at 22:45 in ♈ Aries the lunar orbit is getting narrow while the Moon is moving towards the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 4 days until the Moon reaches the point of next perigee on 14 August 2064 at 20:26 in ♍ Virgo.
The Moon is 380 511 km(236 439 mi) away from Earth and getting closer over the next 4 days until the point perigee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 362 724 km(225 386 mi).
Moon before descending node
12 days after ascending node on 29 July 2064 at 02:05 in ♒ Aquarius the Moon is positioned north of the ecliptic over the following day until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from North to South in descending node on 12 August 2064 at 09:26 in ♌ Leo.
1 day since the last northern standstill on 8 August 2064 at 13:25 in ♊ Gemini when the Moon has reached North declination of ∠27.403° the lunar orbit is extending southward over the next 10 days to face maximum declination of ∠-27.397° at the point of next southern standstill on 21 August 2064 at 06:25 in ♐ Sagittarius.
In 2 days on 12 August 2064 at 17:49 in ♌ Leo 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.
