Moon phase and lunation details
Moonrise and moonset
Moon rises at sunrise and sets at sunset. It's part facing the Earth is completely in shadow.
Moon in ♌ Leo
Moon is passing about ∠15° of ♌ Leo tropical zodiac sector.
Apparent angular diameter
Lunar disc is not visible from Earth. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1786" and ∠1893".
Sturgeon Moon after 14 days
Next Full Moon is the Sturgeon Moon of August 2075 after 14 days on 26 August 2075 at 00:51.
Upcoming main Moon phases
- First Quarter in Scorpio ♏ on 19 August 2075 at 09:12
- Full Moon in Pisces ♓ on 26 August 2075 at 00:51
- Last Quarter in Gemini ♊ on 2 September 2075 at 08:34
- New Moon in Virgo ♍ on 10 September 2075 at 11:02
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.
New lunation 935 / 1888
At 21:11 on this date the Moon completes the old and enters a new synodic month with lunation 935 of Meeus index or 1888 from Brown series.
Synodic month length 29.58 days
The length of the lunation is 29 days, 13 hours and 52 minutes. It is 1 hour and 11 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 8 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 5 hours and 55 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit position on
True anomaly ∠218.9°
The true anomaly is ∠218.9°. At the beginning of the next synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠251.8°.
Moon after apogee
3 days after point of apogee on 8 August 2075 at 04:19 in ♋ Cancer. The lunar orbit is getting narrow, while the Moon is moving towards the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 12 days, until the Moon reaches the point of next perigee on 23 August 2075 at 22:14 in ♑ Capricorn.
Distance to Moon 401 288 km
The Moon is 401 288 km (249 349 mi) away from Earth and getting closer over the next 12 days until the point perigee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 362 690 km (225 365 mi).
Moon after ascending node
2 days after ascending node on 8 August 2075 at 23:02 in ♋ Cancer. The Moon is located north of the ecliptic over the following 11 days, until the lunar orbit crosses from North to South in descending node on 22 August 2075 at 16:33 in ♑ Capricorn.
Draconic month
2 days since the beginning of current draconic month in ♋ Cancer, the Moon is navigating from the beginning to the first part of the cycle.
Moon after northern standstill
2 days since the previous standstill on 8 August 2075 at 18:41 in ♋ Cancer when the Moon has reached North declination of ∠22.688°, the lunar orbit is extending southward over the next 11 days to face maximum declination of ∠-22.754° at the point of next southern standstill on 22 August 2075 at 13:47 in ♑ Capricorn.
Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy
The Moon is in a New Moon geocentric conjunction with the Sun and thus forming Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy alignment.
