The Moon Cycle

The Moon circles around the Earth every 29.53 day (on average). The shortest cycle was on 20 July 1978 and it only took 29.27 days to complete the cycle. The longest cycle will take place on 19 January 2049 and it will take 29.83 days. The variation is because the celestial circuit (orbit) is elliptical, and also the Moon and the Earth are not perfect circle.
