Moon is passing first ∠0° of ♑ Capricorn tropical zodiac sector.
Flower Moon after 22 days
Next Full Moon is the Flower Moon of May 2093 after 22 days on 11 May 2093 at 02:17.
Moderate tide
There is medium ocean tide on this date. Sun and Moon gravitational forces are not aligned, but meet at very acute angle, so their combined tidal force is moderate.
Apparent angular diameter ∠1967"
Lunar disc appears visually 2.9% wider than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1967" and ∠1910".
Lunation 1153 / 2106
The Moon is 22 days old and navigating through the last part of the current synodic month. This is lunation 1153 of Meeus index or 2106 from Brown series.
The length of this lunation is 29 days, 12 hours and 54 minutes and it is 1 hour and 1 minute shorter than the upcoming 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°).
Lunation length longer than mean
The length of the current synodic month is 10 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 6 hours and 53 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠73.1°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit at the beginning of this lunation cycle is ∠73.1° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠109.2°.
Moon after perigee
2 days since point of perigee on 15 April 2093 at 13:30 in ♐ Sagittarius the lunar orbit is getting widen while the Moon is moving away from the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 12 days until the Moon reaches the point of next apogee on 1 May 2093 at 06:12 in ♋ Cancer.
The Moon is 364 383 km(226 417 mi) away from Earth and getting further over the next 12 days until the point apogee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 404 751 km(251 501 mi).
Moon in descending node
Moon is in descending node in ♑ Capricorn at 13:39 crossing the ecliptic from North to South. Lunar position remains south of if for the upcoming 14 days until Moon's next ascending node later on 2 May 2093 at 12:02 in ♋ Cancer.
1 day since the last southern standstill on 17 April 2093 at 04:44 in ♑ Capricorn when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-21.301° the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next 12 days to face maximum declination of ∠21.429° at the point of next northern standstill on 1 May 2093 at 00:13 in ♋ Cancer.
In 7 days on 25 April 2093 at 16:12 in ♈ Aries the Moon is going to be in a New Moon geocentric conjunction with the Sun and thus forming the next Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy alignment.
