Synodic month length 29.59 days

The length of the lunation is 29 days, 14 hours and 11 minutes. It is 1 hour and 41 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 1 hour and 27 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 5 hours and 36 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.

Lunar orbit position on

True anomaly ∠206.9°

At the beginning of the lunation cycle the true anomaly is ∠206.9°. At the beginning of next synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠235.9°.

Moon after perigee

1 day after point of perigee on 16 June 2065 at 20:01 in ♏ Scorpio. The lunar orbit is getting widen, while the Moon is moving away from the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 10 days, until the Moon reaches the point of next apogee on 28 June 2065 at 22:35 in ♉ Taurus.

Distance to Moon 368 171 km

The Moon is 368 171 km (228 771 mi) away from Earth and getting further over the next 10 days until the point apogee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 405 316 km (251 852 mi).

Moon before ascending node

10 days after descending node on 7 June 2065 at 16:41 in ♋ Cancer. The Moon is located south of the ecliptic over the following day, until the lunar orbit crosses from South to North in ascending node on 20 June 2065 at 10:37 in ♑ Capricorn.

Draconic month

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

Moon after southern standstill

1 day since the previous standstill on 17 June 2065 at 22:40 in ♐ Sagittarius when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-26.172°, the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next 13 days to face maximum declination of ∠26.180° at the point of next northern standstill on 1 July 2065 at 23:11 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.
