Moon is passing about ∠8° of ♈ Aries tropical zodiac sector.
1 day after Last Quarter
Previous main lunar phase is the Last Quarter before 1 day on 8 June 2072 at 21:20.
Strawberry Moon after 19 days
Next Full Moon is the Strawberry Moon of June 2072 after 19 days on 30 June 2072 at 10:21.
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 ∠1789"
Lunar disc appears visually 5.5% narrower than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1789" and ∠1890".
Lunation 895 / 1848
The Moon is 23 days old and navigating from the second to the final part of the current synodic month. This is lunation 895 of Meeus index or 1848 from Brown series.
The length of this lunation is 29 days, 9 hours and 39 minutes and it is 1 hour and 40 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 5 minutes shorter than the mean synodic month length. It is 3 hours and 4 minutes longer compared to 21st century's shortest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠285°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit at the beginning of this lunation cycle is ∠285° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠313.1°.
Moon after apogee
2 days since point of apogee on 7 June 2072 at 12:42 in ♓ Pisces the lunar orbit is getting narrow while the Moon is moving towards the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 8 days until the Moon reaches the point of next perigee on 19 June 2072 at 10:24 in ♌ Leo.
The Moon is 400 749 km(249 014 mi) away from Earth and getting closer over the next 8 days until the point perigee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 365 625 km(227 189 mi).
Moon after descending node
2 days after descending node on 8 June 2072 at 10:43 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 21 June 2072 at 16:43 in ♍ Virgo.
7 days since the last southern standstill on 2 June 2072 at 16:38 in ♐ Sagittarius when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-18.669° the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next 6 days to face maximum declination of ∠18.692° at the point of next northern standstill on 17 June 2072 at 00:01 in ♋ Cancer.
In 5 days on 16 June 2072 at 09:57 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.
