Moon is passing about ∠7° of ♊ Gemini tropical zodiac sector.
Strawberry Moon after 15 days
Next Full Moon is the Strawberry Moon of June 2077 after 15 days on 6 June 2077 at 15:07.
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 ∠1898" and ∠1895".
New lunation 957 / 1910
At 02:38 on this date the Moon completes the old and enters a new synodic month with lunation 957 of Meeus index or lunation 1910 from Brown series.
The length of the lunation is 29 days, 10 hours and 17 minutes. It is 1 hour and 29 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 shorter than mean
The length of the current synodic month is 2 hours and 27 minutes shorter than the mean synodic month length. It is 3 hours and 42 minutes longer compared to 21st century's shortest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠50.2°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit is ∠50.2° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠80.3°.
Moon after perigee
3 days since point of perigee on 18 May 2077 at 19:58 in ♈ Aries the lunar orbit is getting widen while the Moon is moving away from the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 8 days until the Moon reaches the point of next apogee on 30 May 2077 at 18:38 in ♍ Virgo.
The Moon is 377 641 km(234 655 mi) away from Earth and getting further over the next 8 days until the point apogee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 404 357 km(251 256 mi).
Moon in ascending node
Moon is in ascending node in ♊ Gemini at 13:10 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 5 June 2077 at 23:08 in ♐ Sagittarius.
10 days since the last southern standstill on 12 May 2077 at 02:35 in ♑ Capricorn when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-25.829° the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next 2 days to face maximum declination of ∠25.836° at the point of next northern standstill on 24 May 2077 at 22:23 in ♋ Cancer.
At 13:10 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.
