New Moon on . The illuminated surface of the Moon is 0%. Lunar cycle is 1 day young.
* The exact date and time of this New Moon phase is on 27 June 2090 at 17:11 UTC.
The moon rises at sunrise and sets at sunset. It's part facing the Earth is completely in shadow.

Main moon phases of the following lunar cycle.
Moon is passing first ∠3° of ♋ Cancer tropical zodiac sector.
Next Full Moon is the Buck Moon of July 2090 after 14 days on 11 July 2090 at 17:02.
There is high New Moon ocean tide on this date. Combined Sun and Moon gravitational tidal force working on Earth is strong, because of the Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy alignment.
Lunar disc is not visible from Earth. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1903" and ∠1887".
At 17:11 on this date the Moon completes the old and enters a new synodic month with lunation 1119 of Meeus index or lunation 2072 from Brown series.
The length of the lunation is 29 days, 8 hours and 8 minutes. It is 28 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°).
The length of the current synodic month is 4 hours and 36 minutes shorter than the mean synodic month length. It is 1 hour and 33 minutes longer compared to 21st century's shortest synodic month length.
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit is ∠310° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠331.5°.
8 days since point of apogee on 19 June 2090 at 00:40 in ♓ Pisces the lunar orbit is getting narrow while the Moon is moving towards the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 3 days until the Moon reaches the point of next perigee on 30 June 2090 at 23:26 in ♌ Leo.
The Moon is 376 727 km (234 087 mi) away from Earth and getting closer over the next 3 days until the point perigee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 366 238 km (227 570 mi).
7 days after descending node on 19 June 2090 at 18:49 in ♓ Pisces the Moon is positioned south of the ecliptic over the following 5 days until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from South to North in ascending node on 3 July 2090 at 01:54 in ♍ Virgo.
At 08:45 the Moon is meeting its standstill point to reach North declination of ∠18.446°. Over the upcoming 12 days the lunar orbit is going to tilt southward to face maximum declination of ∠-18.430° at the point of next southern standstill in ♑ Capricorn on 10 July 2090 at 07:05.
21 days since the beginning of this draconic month in ♍ Virgo the Moon is navigating from the second to the final part of the lunar cycle.
The Moon is in a New Moon geocentric conjunction with the Sun and thus forming Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy alignment.
