Next Full Moon is the Buck Moon of July 2091 after 14 days on 1 July 2091 at 01:54.
Upcoming main Moon phases
- New Moon in Gemini ♊ on 17 June 2091 at 02:41
- First Quarter in Libra ♎ on 24 June 2091 at 08:31
- Full Moon in Capricorn ♑ on 1 July 2091 at 01:54
- Last Quarter in Aries ♈ on 8 July 2091 at 17:21
Spring tide
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.
New lunation 1130 / 2083
At 13:07 on this date the Moon completes the old and enters a new synodic month with lunation 1130 of Meeus index or 2083 from Brown series.
Synodic month length 29.57 days
29 days, 13 hours and 34 minutes is the length of new lunation 1130. It is 1 hour and 59 minutes longer than next lunation 1131 length.
Lunation length longer than mean
Length of current synodic month is 50 minutes longer than the mean length of synodic month, but it is still 6 hours and 13 minutes shorter, compared to 21st century longest.
Lunar orbit position on
True anomaly ∠214.7°
This lunation true anomaly is ∠214.7°. At the beginning of next synodic month true anomaly will be ∠245.7°. The length of upcoming synodic months will keep decreasing since the true anomaly gets closer to the value of New Moon at point of perigee (∠0° or ∠360°).
Moon after apogee
4 days after point of apogee on 11 June 2091 at 19:05 in ♈ Aries. The lunar orbit is getting closer, while the Moon is moving inward the Earth. It will keep this direction for the next 10 days, until it get to the point of next perigee on 27 June 2091 at 11:38 in ♏ Scorpio.
Distance to Moon 396 162 km
Moon is 396 162 km (246 164 mi) away from Earth on this date. Moon moves closer next 10 days until perigee, when Earth-Moon distance will reach 366 857 km (227 954 mi).
Moon before ascending node
8 days after its descending node on 7 June 2091 at 23:53 in ♒ Aquarius, the Moon is following the southern part of its orbit for the next 5 days, until it will cross the ecliptic from South to North in ascending node on 22 June 2091 at 07:10 in ♍ Virgo.
Draconic month
21 days after beginning of current draconic month in ♍ Virgo, the Moon is moving from the second to the final part of it.
Moon before northern standstill
13 days after previous South standstill on 3 June 2091 at 09:48 in ♑ Capricorn, when Moon has reached southern declination of ∠-18.930°. Next day the lunar orbit moves northward to face North declination of ∠18.975° in the next northern standstill on 17 June 2091 at 21:16 in ♊ Gemini.
Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy
The Moon is in New Moon geocentric conjunction with the Sun on this date and this alignment forms Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy.
