Moon is passing about ∠17° of ♑ Capricorn tropical zodiac sector.
1 day after Full Moon
Previous main lunar phase is the Full Moon before 1 day on 17 June 2076 at 02:38.
Strawberry Moon before 1 day
Next Full Moon is the Buck Moon of July 2076 after 27 days on 16 July 2076 at 10:12.
Moderate tide
There is medium ocean tide on this date. Sun and Moon gravitational forces are not aligned, but meet at very acute angle, so their combined tidal force is moderate.
Apparent angular diameter ∠1961"
Lunar disc appears visually 3.8% wider than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1961" and ∠1888".
Lunation 945 / 1898
The Moon is 16 days old and navigating from the middle to the last part of the current synodic month. This is lunation 945 of Meeus index or 1898 from Brown series.
The length of this lunation is 29 days, 13 hours and 51 minutes and it is 1 hour and 10 minutes shorter than the upcoming lunation's length. The lengths of the following synodic months are going to increase with the lunar orbit true anomaly getting closer to the value it has at the point of New Moon at apogee (∠180°).
Lunation length longer than mean
The length of the current synodic month is 1 hour and 7 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 5 hours and 56 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠114.1°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit at the beginning of this lunation cycle is ∠114.1° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠145.4°.
Moon before perigee
11 days since point of apogee on 7 June 2076 at 01:18 in ♌ Leo the lunar orbit is getting narrow while the Moon is moving towards the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next day until the Moon reaches the point of next perigee on 19 June 2076 at 00:36 in ♒ Aquarius.
The Moon is 365 454 km(227 083 mi) away from Earth and getting closer over the next day until the point perigee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 361 900 km(224 874 mi).
Moon after descending node
1 day after descending node on 17 June 2076 at 01:51 in ♐ Sagittarius 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 30 June 2076 at 03:27 in ♊ Gemini.
At 02:44 the Moon is meeting its standstill point to reach South declination of ∠-24.331°. Over the upcoming 12 days the lunar orbit is going to tilt northward to face maximum declination of ∠24.319° at the point of next northern standstill in ♋ Cancer on 1 July 2076 at 09:39.
In 12 days on 1 July 2076 at 07:04 in ♋ Cancer 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.
