Moon is passing about ∠21° of ♑ Capricorn tropical zodiac sector.
It is Buck Moon
The Full Moon these days is the Buck of July 2077.
Spring tide
There is high Full Moon ocean tide on this date. Combined Sun and Moon gravitational tidal force working on Earth is strong, because of the Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy alignment.
Apparent angular diameter ∠1912"
Lunar disc appears visually 1.3% wider than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1912" and ∠1887".
Lunation 958 / 1911
The Moon is 15 days old and navigating through the middle part of the current synodic month. This is lunation 958 of Meeus index or 1911 from Brown series.
The length of this lunation is 29 days, 11 hours and 46 minutes and it is 1 hour and 51 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 shorter than mean
The length of the current synodic month is 58 minutes shorter than the mean synodic month length. It is 5 hours and 11 minutes longer compared to 21st century's shortest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠80.3°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit at the beginning of this lunation cycle is ∠80.3° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠115.1°.
Moon before perigee
8 days since point of apogee on 27 June 2077 at 13:19 in ♍ Virgo the lunar orbit is getting narrow while the Moon is moving towards the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 3 days until the Moon reaches the point of next perigee on 9 July 2077 at 14:18 in ♒ Aquarius.
The Moon is 374 948 km(232 982 mi) away from Earth and getting closer over the next 3 days until the point perigee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 366 710 km(227 863 mi).
Moon after descending node
3 days after descending node on 3 July 2077 at 07:19 in ♐ Sagittarius the Moon is positioned south of the ecliptic over the following 9 days until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from South to North in ascending node on 16 July 2077 at 02:42 in ♊ Gemini.
1 day since the last southern standstill on 5 July 2077 at 16:53 in ♑ Capricorn when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-25.808° the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next 12 days to face maximum declination of ∠25.808° at the point of next northern standstill on 18 July 2077 at 14:18 in ♋ Cancer.
