New Moon on . The illuminated surface of the Moon is 0%. Lunar cycle is less than 1 day young.
* The exact date and time of this New Moon phase is on 5 June 2092 at 05:17 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 about ∠19° of ♊ Gemini tropical zodiac sector.
Next Full Moon is the Strawberry Moon of June 2092 after 14 days on 19 June 2092 at 16:56.
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 ∠1771" and ∠1891".
At 05:17 on this date the Moon completes the old and enters a new synodic month with lunation 1143 of Meeus index or lunation 2096 from Brown series.
The length of the lunation is 29 days, 14 hours and 53 minutes. It is 1 hour and 9 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 2 hours and 9 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 4 hours and 54 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit is ∠190.3° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠215.3°.
1 day since point of apogee on 4 June 2092 at 01:49 in ♊ Gemini the lunar orbit is getting narrow while the Moon is moving towards the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 13 days until the Moon reaches the point of next perigee on 18 June 2092 at 20:37 in ♐ Sagittarius.
The Moon is 404 785 km (251 522 mi) away from Earth and getting closer over the next 13 days until the point perigee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 358 196 km (222 573 mi).
9 days after descending node on 26 May 2092 at 13:44 in ♒ Aquarius the Moon is positioned south of the ecliptic over the following 4 days until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from South to North in ascending node on 10 June 2092 at 04:20 in ♌ Leo.
12 days since the last southern standstill on 23 May 2092 at 22:16 in ♑ Capricorn when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-20.010° the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next day to face maximum declination of ∠20.088° at the point of next northern standstill on 7 June 2092 at 05:48 in ♋ Cancer.
22 days since the beginning of this draconic month in ♌ Leo 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.
