Moon is passing about ∠5° of ♐ Sagittarius tropical zodiac sector.
Harvest Moon after 7 days
Next Full Moon is the Harvest Moon of September 2082 after 7 days on 7 September 2082 at 04:30.
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 ∠1951"
Lunar disc appears visually 2.6% wider than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1951" and ∠1901".
Lunation 1022 / 1975
The Moon is 7 days young and navigating through the first part of the current synodic month. This is lunation 1022 of Meeus index or 1975 from Brown series.
The length of this lunation is 29 days, 8 hours and 46 minutes and it is 1 minute shorter than the upcoming lunation's length. This is the year's shortest synodic month of 2082. 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 shorter than mean
The length of the current synodic month is 3 hours and 58 minutes shorter than the mean synodic month length. It is 2 hours and 11 minutes longer compared to 21st century's shortest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠323.3°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit at the beginning of this lunation cycle is ∠323.3° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠342.2°.
Moon after perigee
4 days since point of perigee on 26 August 2082 at 07:48 in ♎ Libra the lunar orbit is getting widen while the Moon is moving away from the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 11 days until the Moon reaches the point of next apogee on 11 September 2082 at 03:35 in ♉ Taurus.
The Moon is 367 392 km(228 287 mi) away from Earth and getting further over the next 11 days until the point apogee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 405 686 km(252 082 mi).
Moon before ascending node
6 days after descending node on 23 August 2082 at 18:04 in ♌ Leo the Moon is positioned south of the ecliptic over the following 6 days until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from South to North in ascending node on 5 September 2082 at 17:31 in ♒ Aquarius.
11 days since the last northern standstill on 19 August 2082 at 03:43 in ♊ Gemini when the Moon has reached North declination of ∠27.949° the lunar orbit is extending southward over the next day to face maximum declination of ∠-27.941° at the point of next southern standstill on 31 August 2082 at 22:20 in ♐ Sagittarius.
In 7 days on 7 September 2082 at 04:30 in ♓ Pisces the Moon is going to be in a Full Moon geocentric opposition with the Sun and thus forming the next Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy alignment.
