Moon phase and

lunation details

Moonrise and moonset

Moon rises at sunset and sets at sunrise. It is
visible all night and it is high in the sky around
midnight.

Moon in Pisces
Moon is leaving the last ∠2° of Pisces
tropical zodiac sector and will enter Aries
later.

Apparent angular diameter

∠ 1950"
Lunar disc appears visually 1.9% wider than
solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular
diameters are ∠1950" and ∠1914".

It is Harvest Moon
The Full Moon this days is the Harvest of
September 2007.

Spring tide
There is high Full Moon ocean tide on this date.
Combined Sun and Moon gravitational tidal force
working on Earth is strong, because of the Sun-
Earth-Moon syzygy alignment.

Lunation 95 / 1048
The Moon is 14 days old. Earth's natural satellite
is moving through the middle part of current
synodic month. This is lunation 95 of Meeus
index or 1048 from Brown series.

Synodic month length 29.68

days
The length of the lunation is 29 days, 16 hours
and 16 minutes. It is 1 hour and 46 minutes
shorter than the next lunation's length. The
lengths of the following synodic months are
going to increasing with the 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
3 hours and 32 minutes longer than the mean
synodic month length. It is 3 hours and
31 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's
longest synodic month length.

Lunar orbit position on

26 September 2007
Wednesday 12:00 UTC

True anomaly ∠ 131.4°

At the beginning of the lunation cycle the true
anomaly is ∠131.4°. At the beginning of next
synodic month the true anomaly is going to be
∠159.5°.

Moon before apogee

10 days after point of apogee on
15 September 2007 at 21:06 in Scorpio. The
lunar orbit is getting narrow, while the Moon is
moving towards the Earth. It will keep this
direction over the next day, until the Moon
reaches the point of next perigee on
28 September 2007 at 01:53 in Aries.

$ Previous apogee | Next perigee %

Distance to Moon
367 518 km
The Moon is 367 518 km (228 365 mi) away
from Earth and getting closer over the next day
until the point perigee when Earth-Moon
distance is going to be 359 420 km
(223 333 mi).

Moon after ascending node

1 day after ascending node on
25 September 2007 at 00:40 in Pisces. The
Moon is located north of the ecliptic over the
following 11 days, until the lunar orbit crosses
from North to South in descending node on
7 October 2007 at 20:03 in Virgo.

Draconic month
1 day since the beginning of current draconic
month in Pisces, the Moon is navigating from
the beginning to the first part of the cycle.

Moon before northern

standstill
6 days since the previous standstill on
19 September 2007 at 16:22 in Sagittarius
when the Moon has reached South declination
of ∠-28.347°, the lunar orbit is extending
northward over the next 5 days to face
maximum declination of ∠28.296° at the point of
next northern standstill on 2 October 2007 at
10:23 in Gemini.

$ Previous standstill | Next standstill %

Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy
The Moon is in a Full Moon geocentric
opposition with the Sun and thus forming Sun-
Earth-Moon syzygy alignment.
