The full moon in the year 6 BC occurred on several dates, but one notable full moon was on January 10. Due to variations in timekeeping and calendar systems, precise dates can differ slightly based on the method of calculation. However, January 10, 6 BC is often referenced in historical astronomical data.
The moon was full on August 5, 1952.The next Full Moon occurred on September 3 of that year. (It's rareto have two full moons in the same calendar month.)
The "waning gibbous" phase lasts from 2 days after the full to 6 days after the full.
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.
In October 2023, the moon phases include the New Moon on October 14, the First Quarter on October 22, the Full Moon on October 28, and the Last Quarter on October 6. These phases mark the lunar cycle, with the New Moon indicating the start, and the Full Moon representing its peak brightness. Be sure to check local times for visibility!
Imagine the earth being the center of a clock and the sun way off at 9:00. The moon travels around the earth in a counter-clockwise direction. If the moon was at 3:00, it would be a full moon. If the moon was at 12:00, it would be a half moon. If the moon was at 9:00 it would be a new moon. If the moon was at 6:00 it would be a half moon, then go back to 3:00 and a full moon again.
The moon was full on August 5, 1952.The next Full Moon occurred on September 3 of that year. (It's rareto have two full moons in the same calendar month.)
If the moon is setting at 6 am, it is likely in its waning gibbous phase. This phase occurs after the full moon and before the last quarter moon, when the illuminated portion of the moon is decreasing.
full moon is every 27.5 days
To calculate how long ago 6 BC was, you add 6 years to the current year, 2023 AD, because there is no year 0 in the transition from BC to AD. Therefore, 6 BC was 2029 years ago.
Nope. It's impossible to have one phase of the moon for more than three days.
6 BC refers to the year 6 Before Christ, which is part of the BC (Before Christ) era in the Gregorian calendar. To convert this to a positive year in the AD (Anno Domini) system, you would count backward from 1 AD. Therefore, 6 BC is 6 years before the year 1 AD.
The "waning gibbous" phase lasts from 2 days after the full to 6 days after the full.
As there was no year zero, it was 11 years.

The Moon is in orbit around the Earth. All orbits are elliptical, meaning oval-shaped; no orbits are perfect circles. When it is at "apogee", or the farthest distance from the Earth, the Moon is about 250,000 miles distant. At "perigee", or the closest distance to the Earth, the Moon is about 225,000 miles away. It does this EVERY MONTH. Because the Earth is orbiting the Sun and the Moon orbits the Earth, there's one particular time of year at which the lunar perigee happens to coincide with the full moon; this is called the "perigee full moon", although some writers who are desperate for headlines have started to call this the "super moon". The "super moon", or "perigee full moon" for 2012 happened last night (as I write this on May 6, 2012). It will happen again next year.

Full moon, man and fur.
