Moon is passing first ∠1° of ♋ Cancer tropical zodiac sector.
Buck Moon after 15 days
Next Full Moon is the Buck Moon of July 2076 after 15 days on 16 July 2076 at 10:12.
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 ∠1887".
New lunation 945 / 1898
At 17:14 on this date the Moon completes the old and enters a new synodic month with lunation 945 of Meeus index or lunation 1898 from Brown series.
The length of the lunation is 29 days, 13 hours and 51 minutes. It is 1 hour and 10 minutes shorter than the next 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 is ∠114.1° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠145.4°.
Moon before apogee
11 days since point of perigee on 19 June 2076 at 00:36 in ♒ Aquarius the lunar orbit is getting widen while the Moon is moving away from the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 4 days until the Moon reaches the point of next apogee on 4 July 2076 at 16:02 in ♌ Leo.
The Moon is 398 750 km(247 772 mi) away from Earth and getting further over the next 4 days until the point apogee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 405 946 km(252 243 mi).
Moon in ascending node
Moon is in ascending node in ♊ Gemini at 03:27 crossing the ecliptic from South to North. Lunar position remains north of if for the upcoming 14 days until Moon's next descending node later on 14 July 2076 at 12:03 in ♐ Sagittarius.
12 days since the last southern standstill on 18 June 2076 at 02:44 in ♑ Capricorn when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-24.331° the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next day to face maximum declination of ∠24.319° at the point of next northern standstill on 1 July 2076 at 09:39 in ♋ Cancer.
At 03:27 in the point ot ascending node the Moon is completing the last draconic month and is entering a new one while the lunar orbit is crossing the ecliptic from South to North.
