Moon phase and lunation

details

2 days after New Moon

Previous main lunar phase is the New Moon before 2 days
on 17 July 2004 at 11:24.

Moonrise and moonset

Moon rises in the morning and sets in the evening. It is
visible toward the southwest in early evening.

Moon in Leo
Moon is passing about ∠20° of Leo tropical zodiac
sector.

Apparent angular diameter ∠ 1805"

Lunar disc appears visually 4.5% narrower than solar disc.
Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1805" and
∠1888".

Neap tide
There is low ocean tide on this date. Sun and Moon
gravitational forces are not aligned, but meet at big angle,
so their combined tidal force is weak.

Lunation 56 / 1009
The Moon is 2 days young. Earth's natural satellite is
moving from the beginning to the first part of current
synodic month. This is lunation 56 of Meeus index or 1009
from Brown series.

$ Previous | Current | Next %

Synodic month length 29.58 days

The length of the lunation is 29 days, 14 hours and 1 minute.
It is 55 minutes longer than the next lunation's length. The
lengths of the following synodic months are going to
decreasing with the true anomaly getting closer to the value
it has at the point of New Moon at perigee (∠0° or ∠360°).

Lunation length longer than mean

The length of the current synodic month is 1 hour and
16 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is
5 hours and 47 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's
longest synodic month length.

Lunar orbit position on 19

July 2004 Monday 12:00 UTC

True anomaly ∠ 205.1°

At the beginning of the lunation cycle the true anomaly is
∠205.1°. At the beginning of next synodic month the true
anomaly is going to be ∠234°.

Moon after apogee

4 days after point of apogee on 14 July 2004 at 21:08 in
Gemini. The lunar orbit is getting narrow, while the Moon
is moving towards the Earth. It will keep this direction over
the next 10 days, until the Moon reaches the point of next
perigee on 30 July 2004 at 06:25 in Capricorn.

$ Previous apogee | Next perigee %

Distance to Moon 396 996 km

The Moon is 396 996 km (246 682 mi) away from Earth and
getting closer over the next 10 days until the point perigee
when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 360 326 km
(223 896 mi).

Moon before descending node

8 days after ascending node on 11 July 2004 at 00:59 in
Taurus. The Moon is located north of the ecliptic over
the following 5 days, until the lunar orbit crosses from North
to South in descending node on 25 July 2004 at 11:29 in
Scorpio.

Draconic month
8 days since the beginning of current draconic month in
Taurus, the Moon is navigating from the beginning to the
first part of the cycle.

Moon after northern standstill

3 days since the previous standstill on 15 July 2004 at
20:46 in Cancer when the Moon has reached North
declination of ∠27.543°, the lunar orbit is extending
southward over the next 10 days to face maximum
declination of ∠-27.607° at the point of next southern
standstill on 29 July 2004 at 13:12 in Sagittarius.

Syzygy in 12 days
In 12 days on 31 July 2004 at 18:05 in Aquarius the
Moon is going to be in a Full Moon geocentric opposition
with the Sun and thus forming the next Sun-Earth-Moon
syzygy alignment.
