Moon is leaving the last ∠2° of ♍ Virgo tropical zodiac sector and will enter ♎ Libra later.
Hunter Moon after 14 days
Next Full Moon is the Hunter Moon of October 2077 after 14 days on 2 October 2077 at 01:20.
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 ∠1768" and ∠1910".
New lunation 961 / 1914
At 05:53 on this date the Moon completes the old and enters a new synodic month with lunation 961 of Meeus index or lunation 1914 from Brown series.
The length of the lunation is 29 days, 17 hours and 14 minutes. It is 39 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 4 hours and 30 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 2 hours and 33 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠171°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit is ∠171° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠194.6°.
Moon before apogee
13 days since point of perigee on 3 September 2077 at 12:31 in ♓ Pisces 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 18 September 2077 at 06:17 in ♎ Libra.
The Moon is 405 322 km(251 855 mi) away from Earth and getting further over the next day until the point apogee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 406 604 km(252 652 mi).
Moon before descending node
9 days after ascending node on 8 September 2077 at 05:17 in ♊ Gemini the Moon is positioned north of the ecliptic over the following 5 days until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from North to South in descending node on 22 September 2077 at 17:43 in ♏ Scorpio.
6 days since the last northern standstill on 11 September 2077 at 00:42 in ♋ Cancer when the Moon has reached North declination of ∠26.130° the lunar orbit is extending southward over the next 8 days to face maximum declination of ∠-26.269° at the point of next southern standstill on 25 September 2077 at 19:33 in ♑ Capricorn.
