Moon is passing about ∠8° of ♈ Aries tropical zodiac sector.
Pink Moon after 13 days
Next Full Moon is the Pink Moon of April 2072 after 13 days on 3 April 2072 at 01:25.
Spring tide
There is high New Moon ocean tide on this date. Combined Sun and Moon gravitational tidal force working on Earth is strong, because of the Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy alignment.
Apparent angular diameter
Lunar disc is not visible from Earth. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1798" and ∠1926".
New lunation 893 / 1846
At 20:21 on this date the Moon completes the old and enters a new synodic month with lunation 893 of Meeus index or lunation 1846 from Brown series.
The length of the lunation is 29 days, 15 hours and 35 minutes. It is 3 hours and 13 minutes longer than the next 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 2 hours and 51 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 4 hours and 12 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠217.4°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit is ∠217.4° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠250.1°.
Moon after apogee
4 days since point of apogee on 16 March 2072 at 05:25 in ♒ Aquarius the lunar orbit is getting narrow while the Moon is moving towards the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 11 days until the Moon reaches the point of next perigee on 1 April 2072 at 01:31 in ♍ Virgo.
The Moon is 398 586 km(247 670 mi) away from Earth and getting closer over the next 11 days until the point perigee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 362 291 km(225 117 mi).
Moon after descending node
1 day after descending node on 18 March 2072 at 21:48 in ♓ Pisces the Moon is positioned south of the ecliptic over the following 11 days until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from South to North in ascending node on 1 April 2072 at 07:46 in ♍ Virgo.
7 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 6 days to face maximum declination of ∠18.306° at the point of next northern standstill on 27 March 2072 at 02:22 in ♋ Cancer.
