It’s 554.5 light-years from the solar system. Look just below the full Moon as it rises and you’ll see the red supergiant star Antares, the brightest star in the summer constellation of Scorpius. While short wavelength colors, such as blue and green, strike particles in the atmosphere and are scattered, colors with longer wavelengths, such as yellow, orange and red, pass through the atmosphere uninhibited-and more easily reach your eyes. Why is it orange? When you look at a sunset, a sunrise, a moonrise or moonset, you're looking at something close to the horizon, where the atmosphere is thickest close to the planet. In 10 days on 18 June 2023 at 04:37 in ♊ Gemini 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.As the Sun sets and the sky begins to darken, an orange full Moon will come into view on the opposite horizon, eventually casting a warm glow over the landscape.

The Moon is located south of the ecliptic over the following 6 days, until the lunar orbit crosses from South to North in ascending node on 14 June 2023 at 00:05 in ♉ Taurus.Ģ0 days since the beginning of current draconic month in ♈ Aries, the Moon is navigating from the second to the final part of the cycle.

The Moon is 363 975 km ( 226 164 mi) away from Earth and getting further over the next 15 days until the point apogee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 405 385 km ( 251 895 mi). Previous perigee | Next apogee Distance to Moon 363 975 km It will keep this direction over the next 15 days, until the Moon reaches the point of next apogee on 22 June 2023 at 18:30 in ♌ Leo. The lunar orbit is getting widen, while the Moon is moving away from the Earth. Moon after perigeeġ day after point of perigee on 6 June 2023 at 23:07 in ♑ Capricorn. At the beginning of next synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠127.4°. It is %hours_to_shortest% and %minutes_to_shortest% longer than the 21st century's shortest and %hours_to_longest% and %minutes_to_longest% shorter than the 21st century's longest synodic months.Īt the beginning of the lunation cycle the true anomaly is ∠92.6°. The length of the current synodic month is equal to the mean synodic month length. ![]() The animation is not supported by your device/browser. 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°). Night Time 9 hours, 32 minutes Wed, May 31 at 8:22 pm Thu, Jun 1 at 5:54 am Visible night of May 31 Venus at Farthest Distance from Sun in Sky However, its maximum distance on June 4 will be slightly less than usual. ![]() It is 1 hour and 11 minutes shorter than the next lunation's length. The length of the lunation is 29 days, 12 hours and 44 minutes. Previous | Current lunation | Next Synodic month length 29.53 days This is lunation 289 of Meeus index or 1242 from Brown series. Earth's natural satellite is moving from the middle to the last part of current synodic month. Sun and Moon gravitational forces are not aligned, but meet at very acute angle, so their combined tidal force is moderate.
