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 29 November 2092 at 05:36 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 ∠12° of ♐ Sagittarius tropical zodiac sector.
Next Full Moon is the Cold Moon of December 2092 after 14 days on 13 December 2092 at 21:59.
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 ∠1971" and ∠1946".
At 05:36 on this date the Moon completes the old and enters a new synodic month with lunation 1149 of Meeus index or lunation 2102 from Brown series.
The length of the lunation is 29 days, 10 hours and 34 minutes. It is 38 minutes shorter than the next lunation's length. The lengths of the following synodic months are going to increase with the lunar orbit true anomaly getting closer to the value it has at the point of New Moon at apogee (∠180°).
The length of the current synodic month is 2 hours and 10 minutes shorter than the mean synodic month length. It is 3 hours and 59 minutes longer compared to 21st century's shortest synodic month length.
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit is ∠350.8° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠6.2°.
Moon is at perigee at 18:22 about 12 days since last apogee on 17 November 2092 at 00:09 in ♋ Cancer the lunar orbit is going to widen while the Moon is moving away from the Earth over the upcoming 14 days until point of next apogee on 14 December 2092 at 04:05 in ♊ Gemini.
This perigee Moon is 357 267 km (221 995 mi) away from Earth. It is 5 241 km closer than the mean perigee distance, but it is still 13 089 km further than the closest perigee of 21st century.
9 days after ascending node on 20 November 2092 at 09:44 in ♌ Leo the Moon is positioned north of the ecliptic over the following 3 days until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from North to South in descending node on 3 December 2092 at 03:12 in ♒ Aquarius.
11 days since the last northern standstill on 18 November 2092 at 03:46 in ♋ Cancer when the Moon has reached North declination of ∠20.732° the lunar orbit is extending southward over the next day to face maximum declination of ∠-20.787° at the point of next southern standstill on 1 December 2092 at 09:35 in ♑ Capricorn.
9 days since the beginning of this draconic month in ♌ Leo the Moon is navigating from the beginning to the first 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.
