another new moon i think
The "waning gibbous" phase lasts from 2 days after the full to 6 days after the full.
About 29.5 days.
Fourteen days after a full moon, the moon will be in the new moon phase. This is because the lunar cycle lasts about 29.5 days, so two weeks after a full moon, the moon is positioned between the Earth and the Sun, making it largely invisible from Earth.
It takes approximately 29.5 days for the moon to go from one full moon phase to the next when viewed from Earth. This period is known as a lunar month or synodic month.
The Moon was full two days ago, so for the next 5 days the Moon will be in the "waning gibbous" phase. On Saturday, 2/6/10, the Moon will be at the Third Quarter phase.
I am unable to provide real-time information about the current moon phase. You can check the moon phase for today using a moon phase calendar or a moon phase app on your phone.
1/2 of 29.53 days = 14.77 days (rounded)
The "waning gibbous" phase lasts from 2 days after the full to 6 days after the full.
If tonight the phase of the moon is full when it rises what will be the phase 4 days from now is in the waning gibbous stage.
About 29.5 days.
The length of each moon phase varies, but on average, each phase lasts about 3.5 days. The complete lunar cycle, from one new moon to the next, is about 29.5 days.
I don't have real-time capabilities to provide the Moon's current phase. However, you can easily find out the Moon's phase today by checking a lunar calendar or using a smartphone app that tracks lunar cycles. The Moon goes through its phases approximately every 29.5 days, transitioning from new moon to full moon and back.
It takes about 29.5 days for the moon to go from one new moon phase to the next new moon phase.
first quarter
That depends on what phase the moon is currently in. The moon goes through each phase once per 29.53 days.
One week from now, the moon will likely be in the first quarter phase, where half of the moon is illuminated. The new moon phase is followed by the waxing crescent phase and then the first quarter phase in the lunar cycle.
It takes about 7 days for the Moon to transition from a new moon phase to the first quarter moon phase.
