Moon is passing about ∠15° of ♉ Taurus tropical zodiac sector.
2 days after Full Moon
Previous main lunar phase is the Full Moon before 2 days on 6 October 2082 at 20:48.
Hunter Moon before 2 days
Next Full Moon is the Beaver Moon of November 2082 after 27 days on 5 November 2082 at 14:38.
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 ∠1771"
Lunar disc appears visually 8.2% narrower than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1771" and ∠1922".
Lunation 1023 / 1976
The Moon is 17 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 after apogee
1 day since point of apogee on 8 October 2082 at 14:12 in ♈ Aries the lunar orbit is getting narrow while the Moon is moving towards the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 12 days until the Moon reaches the point of next perigee on 21 October 2082 at 21:44 in ♎ Libra.
The Moon is 404 827 km(251 548 mi) away from Earth and getting closer over the next 12 days until the point perigee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 356 831 km(221 725 mi).
Moon after ascending node
6 days after ascending node on 2 October 2082 at 22:05 in ♒ Aquarius the Moon is positioned north of the ecliptic over the following 7 days until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from North to South in descending node on 17 October 2082 at 11:28 in ♌ Leo.
11 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 3 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 12 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.
