Moon is passing about ∠9° of ♏ Scorpio tropical zodiac sector.
5 days after Last Quarter
Previous main lunar phase is the Last Quarter before 5 days on 18 November 2076 at 15:15.
Cold Moon after 15 days
Next Full Moon is the Cold Moon of December 2076 after 15 days on 10 December 2076 at 11:35.
Neap tide
There is low ocean tide on this date. Sun and Moon gravitational forces are not aligned, but meet at big angle, so their combined tidal force is weak.
Apparent angular diameter ∠1830"
Lunar disc appears visually 6% narrower than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1830" and ∠1944".
Lunation 950 / 1903
The Moon is 27 days old and navigating from the second to the final part of the current synodic month. This is lunation 950 of Meeus index or 1903 from Brown series.
The length of this lunation is 29 days, 14 hours and 38 minutes and it is 1 hour and 13 minutes longer than the upcoming 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 1 hour and 54 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 5 hours and 9 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠254.1°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit at the beginning of this lunation cycle is ∠254.1° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠290.9°.
Moon after apogee
5 days since point of apogee on 18 November 2076 at 23:07 in ♌ Leo the lunar orbit is getting narrow while the Moon is moving towards the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 7 days until the Moon reaches the point of next perigee on 1 December 2076 at 16:17 in ♒ Aquarius.
The Moon is 391 667 km(243 371 mi) away from Earth and getting closer over the next 7 days until the point perigee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 369 627 km(229 676 mi).
Moon before descending node
11 days after ascending node on 12 November 2076 at 22:52 in ♊ Gemini the Moon is positioned north of the ecliptic over the following 2 days until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from North to South in descending node on 27 November 2076 at 08:39 in ♐ Sagittarius.
9 days since the last northern standstill on 14 November 2076 at 19:07 in ♋ Cancer when the Moon has reached North declination of ∠25.085° the lunar orbit is extending southward over the next 4 days to face maximum declination of ∠-25.107° at the point of next southern standstill on 29 November 2076 at 01:35 in ♑ Capricorn.
In 1 day on 26 November 2076 at 11:28 in ♐ Sagittarius 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.
