Full Moon on . The illuminated surface of the moon is 100%. The lunar cycle is 15 days old.
* The exact date and time of this Full Moon phase is on 28 June 2075 at 09:46 UTC.
The moon rises at sunset and sets at sunrise. It is visible all night and it is high in the sky around midnight.

Main moon phases of the following lunar cycle.
Moon is passing about ∠8° of ♑ Capricorn tropical zodiac sector.
The Full Moon these days is the Strawberry of June 2075.
There is high Full Moon ocean tide on this date. Combined Sun and Moon gravitational tidal force working on Earth is strong, because of the Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy alignment.
Lunar disc appears visually 4.4% wider than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1973" and ∠1887".
The Moon is 15 days old and navigating through the middle part of the current synodic month. This is lunation 933 of Meeus index or 1886 from Brown series.
The length of this lunation is 29 days, 15 hours and 32 minutes and it is 33 minutes longer than the upcoming lunation's length. This is the year's longest synodic month of 2075. 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°).
The length of the current synodic month is 2 hours and 48 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 4 hours and 15 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit at the beginning of this lunation cycle is ∠170.5° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠193.2°.
Moon is at perigee at 08:13 about 13 days since last apogee on 14 June 2075 at 16:13 in ♊ Gemini the lunar orbit is going to widen while the Moon is moving away from the Earth over the upcoming 13 days until point of next apogee on 11 July 2075 at 19:15 in ♊ Gemini.
This perigee Moon is 357 098 km (221 890 mi) away from Earth. This is the year's closest perigee of 2075. It is 5 410 km closer than the mean perigee distance, but it is still 673 km further than the closest perigee of 21st century.
Moon is in descending node in ♑ Capricorn at 21:55 crossing the ecliptic from North to South. Lunar position remains south of if for the upcoming 14 days until Moon's next ascending node later on 12 July 2075 at 17:08 in ♋ Cancer.
At 18:29 the Moon is meeting its standstill point to reach South declination of ∠-22.668°. Over the upcoming 14 days the lunar orbit is going to tilt northward to face maximum declination of ∠22.666° at the point of next northern standstill in ♋ Cancer on 12 July 2075 at 12:41.
13 days since the beginning of this draconic month in ♋ Cancer the Moon is navigating from the middle to the last part of the lunar cycle.
The Moon is in a Full Moon geocentric opposition with the Sun and thus forming Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy alignment.
