Moon is passing about ∠18° of ♑ Capricorn tropical zodiac sector.
Wolf Moon after 14 days
Next Full Moon is the Wolf Moon of January 2089 after 14 days on 26 January 2089 at 11:25.
Super spring tide
There is extremely high New Moon ocean tide on this date. Combined Sun and Moon gravitational tidal force working on Earth is heavy, because of the Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy alignment and the near perigee.
Apparent angular diameter
Lunar disc is not visible from Earth. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1768" and ∠1951".
New lunation 1101 / 2054
At 20:17 on this date the Moon completes the old and enters a new synodic month with lunation 1101 of Meeus index or lunation 2054 from Brown series.
The length of the lunation is 29 days, 18 hours and 58 minutes. This is the year's longest synodic month of 2089. It is 1 hour and 50 minutes longer 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 6 hours and 14 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 49 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠185.7°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit is ∠185.7° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠211.9°.
Moon at apogee
Moon is at apogee at 04:23 about 13 days since last perigee on 28 December 2088 at 06:32 in ♋ Cancer the lunar orbit is going to narrow while the Moon is moving towards the Earth over the upcoming 14 days until point of next perigee on 25 January 2089 at 19:36 in ♋ Cancer.
This apogee Moon is 406 703 km(252 714 mi) away from Earth. This is the year's farthest apogee of 2089. It is 1 295 km further than the mean apogee distance, but it is still 6 km closer than the farthest apogee of 21st century.
Moon after ascending node
6 days after ascending node on 4 January 2089 at 12:45 in ♎ Libra 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 19 January 2089 at 04:30 in ♈ Aries.
2 days since the last southern standstill on 9 January 2089 at 11:54 in ♐ Sagittarius when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-18.913° the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next 12 days to face maximum declination of ∠18.817° at the point of next northern standstill on 23 January 2089 at 16:28 in ♊ Gemini.
