Moon is passing about ∠14° of ♍ Virgo tropical zodiac sector.
3 days after New Moon
Previous main lunar phase is the New Moon before 3 days on 21 July 2085 at 17:43.
Sturgeon Moon after 11 days
Next Full Moon is the Sturgeon Moon of August 2085 after 11 days on 5 August 2085 at 17:29.
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 ∠1773"
Lunar disc appears visually 6.3% narrower than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1773" and ∠1889".
Lunation 1058 / 2011
The Moon is 3 days young and navigating from the beginning to the first part of the current synodic month. This is lunation 1058 of Meeus index or 2011 from Brown series.
The length of this lunation is 29 days, 15 hours and 28 minutes and it is 28 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 longer than mean
The length of the current synodic month is 2 hours and 44 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 4 hours and 19 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠156.8°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit at the beginning of this lunation cycle is ∠156.8° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠180.2°.
Moon after apogee
1 day since point of apogee on 24 July 2085 at 03:49 in ♌ Leo the lunar orbit is getting narrow while the Moon is moving towards the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 11 days until the Moon reaches the point of next perigee on 6 August 2085 at 03:30 in ♒ Aquarius.
The Moon is 404 241 km(251 184 mi) away from Earth and getting closer over the next 11 days until the point perigee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 357 268 km(221 996 mi).
Moon after descending node
6 days after descending node on 19 July 2085 at 10:21 in ♋ Cancer the Moon is positioned south of the ecliptic over the following 8 days until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from South to North in ascending node on 2 August 2085 at 20:43 in ♐ Sagittarius.
7 days since the last northern standstill on 18 July 2085 at 08:40 in ♊ Gemini when the Moon has reached North declination of ∠24.116° the lunar orbit is extending southward over the next 7 days to face maximum declination of ∠-24.052° at the point of next southern standstill on 1 August 2085 at 23:37 in ♐ Sagittarius.
In 11 days on 5 August 2085 at 17:29 in ♒ Aquarius 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.
