EDT on Wednesday, while at Boston Harbor a peak tide height of 12.2 feet (3.7 m) comes at 11:56 p.m.
From Cape Fear, North Carolina, the highest tide (5.5 feet, or 1.7 m) happens at 10:42 p.m. For example, for New York City, high water (6.3 feet, or 1.9 meters) at The Battery comes at 9:02 p.m. The highest tides will not, however, coincide with the perigee moon but will actually lag by up to a day or so depending on the specific coastal location.
MOON MAN ECLIPSE ALBUM FULL FULL
In addition, the near coincidence of Wednesday's full moon with perigee will result in a dramatically large range of high and low ocean tides.
In addition, during late spring and early summer, the diameter of Earth's shadow is at its smallest, all while trying to contain a larger-than-normal full moon.Īnd because this eclipse barely qualifies as a total one - the moon is tucked completely into the umbra with hardly any room to spare - totality will be unusually short: lasting less than 15 minutes.Ĭonversely, if the moon were near the apogee point of its orbit - colloquially known as a "micromoon" - it would appear smaller and move more slowly, thus helping to extend the duration of total phase of the eclipse by perhaps as much as 45 minutes! So, it is moving through the Earth's shadow at a quicker pace. When the moon is closer to Earth, it moves in its orbit more rapidly than average. But actually, as far as a total eclipse is concerned, having a full moon so large and so close works against viewers by shortening the duration of totality, when the entire disk of the moon is covered with the Earth's dark inner shadow, called the umbra. Many websites are putting a special emphasis on the fact that this supermoon coincides with a total lunar eclipse - as if this makes the circumstances of this eclipse extra special. This composite photograph of the moon shows various phases of a total lunar eclipse on April 15, 2014, as seen from Magdalena, New Mexico. Newsflash: A supermoon eclipse is really not so super! On that night the moon will appear 13.7% smaller than it will appear Wednesday morning. 18, the full moon will closely coincide with apogee, its farthest point from the earth. It will, in fact, be the biggest full moon in apparent size this year, popularly defined by many as a " supermoon." In contrast, on Dec. EDT (1114 GMT), the moon will officially turn full and will also undergo an eclipse. On Wednesday morning, a little over nine hours after the moon reaches perigee, at 7:14 a.m. While circling Earth in an ellipse-shaped path, the moon comes to perigee once, occasionally twice a month, and the Earth-moon distance during these approaches vary by 3%.

Iron Bonehead have curated quite a collection of contemporary Hellenic classics pulled from the impossible past, and Empire of the Moon’s Εκλειψις stands strong among those, as well as those albums released during Greece’s glory days. To follow up their debut album, the band will soon release their sophomore slayer ‘Εκλειψις, or “Eclipse.” With this new album Empire of the Moon ascend to represent not only quintessential Hellenic black metal, but the trio manages also to expand the known limits of said genre into something more panoramic and somehow more epic.
Mantus (who also plays in the amazing Wampyrinacht), Empire of the Moon play melodic black metal in the Hellenic tradition. In 2014 they released their debut full length Πανσέληνος, or “Full Moon.” Comprised of founding member guitarist/bassist, Ravenlord Wampyri Draconium, vocalist Ouroboros, and keyboardist S.V. Empire of the Moon formed in 1996 in Athens, Greece, released a twelve minute demo tape then faded into obscurity.
