Moon is passing first ∠4° of ♌ Leo tropical zodiac sector.
Sturgeon Moon after 15 days
Next Full Moon is the Sturgeon Moon of August 2076 after 15 days on 14 August 2076 at 17:11.
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 ∠1771" and ∠1890".
New lunation 947 / 1900
At 22:05 on this date the Moon completes the old and enters a new synodic month with lunation 947 of Meeus index or lunation 1900 from Brown series.
The length of the lunation is 29 days, 15 hours and 38 minutes. It is 6 minutes shorter than the next 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 longer than mean
The length of the current synodic month is 2 hours and 54 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 4 hours and 9 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠170.2°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit is ∠170.2° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠193.2°.
Moon before apogee
13 days since point of perigee on 17 July 2076 at 05:58 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 day until the Moon reaches the point of next apogee on 1 August 2076 at 00:12 in ♌ Leo.
The Moon is 404 680 km(251 456 mi) away from Earth and getting further over the next day until the point apogee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 406 563 km(252 627 mi).
Moon after ascending node
3 days after ascending node on 27 July 2076 at 08:20 in ♊ Gemini the Moon is positioned north of the ecliptic over the following 11 days until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from North to South in descending node on 10 August 2076 at 19:54 in ♐ Sagittarius.
1 day since the last northern standstill on 28 July 2076 at 15:14 in ♋ Cancer when the Moon has reached North declination of ∠24.331° the lunar orbit is extending southward over the next 12 days to face maximum declination of ∠-24.400° at the point of next southern standstill on 11 August 2076 at 22:59 in ♑ Capricorn.
