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.

Lunation 808 / 1761

The Moon is 27 days old. Earth's natural satellite is moving from the second to the final part of current synodic month. This is lunation 808 of Meeus index or 1761 from Brown series.

Synodic month length 29.65 days

The length of the lunation is 29 days, 15 hours and 34 minutes. It is 1 hour and 23 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 2 hours and 50 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 4 hours and 13 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.

Lunar orbit position on

True anomaly ∠183°

At the beginning of the lunation cycle the true anomaly is ∠183°. At the beginning of next synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠206.9°.

Moon at apogee

Moon is at apogee at 09:08. It is 12 days after previous perigee on 19 May 2065 at 12:57 in ♏ Scorpio. Lunar orbit is going to narrow while the Moon is moving towards the Earth over the next 15 days, until point of next perigee on 16 June 2065 at 20:01 in ♏ Scorpio.

Distance to Moon 406 272 km

This apogee Moon is 406 272 km (252 446 mi) away from Earth. It is 864 km further than the mean apogee distance, but it is still 437 km closer than the farthest apogee of 21st century.

Moon before descending node

8 days after ascending node on 24 May 2065 at 02:55 in ♑ Capricorn. The Moon is located north of the ecliptic over the following 6 days, until the lunar orbit crosses from North to South in descending node on 7 June 2065 at 16:41 in ♋ Cancer.

Draconic month

8 days since the beginning of current draconic month in ♑ Capricorn, the Moon is navigating from the beginning to the first part of the cycle.

Moon before northern standstill

10 days since the previous standstill on 21 May 2065 at 12:36 in ♐ Sagittarius when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-26.190°, the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next 3 days to face maximum declination of ∠26.155° at the point of next northern standstill on 4 June 2065 at 16:59 in ♊ Gemini.

Syzygy in 2 days

In 2 days on 4 June 2065 at 03:05 in ♊ Gemini 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.
