Moon is passing about ∠20° of ♒ Aquarius tropical zodiac sector.
4 days after Last Quarter
Previous main lunar phase is the Last Quarter before 4 days on 11 March 2072 at 15:18.
Pink Moon after 17 days
Next Full Moon is the Pink Moon of April 2072 after 17 days on 3 April 2072 at 01:25.
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 ∠1768"
Lunar disc appears visually 8.7% narrower than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1768" and ∠1928".
Lunation 892 / 1845
The Moon is 26 days old and navigating from the second to the final part of the current synodic month. This is lunation 892 of Meeus index or 1845 from Brown series.
The length of this lunation is 29 days, 18 hours and 18 minutes and it is 2 hours and 43 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 longer than mean
The length of the current synodic month is 5 hours and 34 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 1 hour and 29 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠190.8°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit at the beginning of this lunation cycle is ∠190.8° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠217.4°.
Moon at apogee
Moon is at apogee at 05:25 about 12 days since last perigee on 3 March 2072 at 18:40 in ♌ Leo the lunar orbit is going to narrow while the Moon is moving towards the Earth over the upcoming 15 days until point of next perigee on 1 April 2072 at 01:31 in ♍ Virgo.
This apogee Moon is 405 956 km(252 249 mi) away from Earth. It is 548 km further than the mean apogee distance, but it is still 753 km closer than the farthest apogee of 21st century.
Moon before descending node
11 days after ascending node on 4 March 2072 at 21:20 in ♍ Virgo the Moon is positioned north of the ecliptic over the following 2 days until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from North to South in descending node on 18 March 2072 at 21:48 in ♓ Pisces.
3 days since the last southern standstill on 12 March 2072 at 13:34 in ♐ Sagittarius when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-18.269° the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next 10 days to face maximum declination of ∠18.306° at the point of next northern standstill on 27 March 2072 at 02:22 in ♋ Cancer.
In 3 days on 19 March 2072 at 20:21 in ♓ Pisces 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.
