Moon is passing first ∠3° of ♉ Taurus tropical zodiac sector.
1 day after Full Moon
Previous main lunar phase is the Full Moon before 1 day on 6 October 2082 at 20:48.
Hunter Moon before 1 day
Next Full Moon is the Beaver Moon of November 2082 after 28 days on 5 November 2082 at 14:38.
Moderate tide
There is medium ocean tide on this date. Sun and Moon gravitational forces are not aligned, but meet at very acute angle, so their combined tidal force is moderate.
Apparent angular diameter ∠1768"
Lunar disc appears visually 8.3% narrower than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1768" and ∠1921".
Lunation 1023 / 1976
The Moon is 16 days old and navigating from the middle to the last part of the current synodic month. This is lunation 1023 of Meeus index or 1976 from Brown series.
The length of this lunation is 29 days, 8 hours and 47 minutes and it is 42 minutes shorter 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 shorter than mean
The length of the current synodic month is 3 hours and 57 minutes shorter than the mean synodic month length. It is 2 hours and 12 minutes longer compared to 21st century's shortest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠342.2°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit at the beginning of this lunation cycle is ∠342.2° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠358°.
Moon at apogee
Moon is at apogee at 14:12 about 15 days since last perigee on 23 September 2082 at 11:21 in ♎ Libra the lunar orbit is going to narrow while the Moon is moving towards the Earth over the upcoming 13 days until point of next perigee on 21 October 2082 at 21:44 in ♎ Libra.
This apogee Moon is 406 382 km(252 514 mi) away from Earth. It is 974 km further than the mean apogee distance, but it is still 327 km closer than the farthest apogee of 21st century.
Moon after ascending node
5 days after ascending node on 2 October 2082 at 22:05 in ♒ Aquarius the Moon is positioned north of the ecliptic over the following 8 days until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from North to South in descending node on 17 October 2082 at 11:28 in ♌ Leo.
10 days since the last southern standstill on 28 September 2082 at 04:25 in ♐ Sagittarius when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-27.825° the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next 4 days to face maximum declination of ∠27.713° at the point of next northern standstill on 12 October 2082 at 18:49 in ♊ Gemini.
In 13 days on 21 October 2082 at 18:50 in ♎ Libra 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.
