This year's Mid-Autumn Moon has five characteristics. First, this year's Mid-Autumn Moon is the smallest full moon in the whole year. The apparent diameter of the moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival is only 29.2 minutes, which is smaller than the apparent diameter of the sun on that day of 3 1.8 minutes. If the sun, the moon and the earth are in a straight line, only an annular eclipse will occur, but not a total solar eclipse. The reason is1September 2, 31:32, which is the farthest from the moon on the earth, reaching 406,340 kilometers, so this year's Mid-Autumn Moon and its full moon are the smallest in the whole year.
Second, this year's Mid-Autumn Moon is the smallest in five years. September 8, 20 14 is the Mid-Autumn Festival. On that day 12, the distance between the earth and the moon was the closest, only 360,000 kilometers, so the apparent diameter of the moon witnessed by the public was the largest. This year's Mid-Autumn Festival, the moon is farthest from the earth, both of which happened on the same day, so the apparent diameter of this year's Mid-Autumn Festival moon is the smallest in five years.
Third, the moon on the 15th of Mid-Autumn Festival this year is sixteen circles. The full moon (full moon) occurs on 12: 33 in September. It will have a better effect to enjoy the moon on the evening of August 16th of the lunar calendar. The moon is not only more round than last night, but also closer to the earth and has a larger apparent diameter. It is understood that from 20 18 to 2020, the Mid-Autumn Festival for three consecutive years is the sixteenth round of the fifteenth.
Fourthly, this Mid-Autumn Festival, the moon in foreign countries is rounder than that in China. Because the most round time of the moon appears on September 4 12: 33, China is in the daytime and can't see the most round full moon. The roundest full moon can be seen in the United States, Mexico, Brazil, Argentina and other countries in the western hemisphere.
Fifth, this year's Mid-Autumn Festival is the latest in the northern hemisphere 14 years. On the Mid-Autumn Festival on September 18, 2005, the moon rose in Guangzhou 18: 43. This Mid-Autumn Festival, the moon in Guangzhou rose at 18: 00 and 18: 00 respectively. One of the reasons why the moon in the northern hemisphere rose late in the Mid-Autumn Festival this year is that the moon was over the southern hemisphere on the Mid-Autumn Festival. Therefore, this Mid-Autumn Festival, the height of the transit on the moon is also lower than normal.
