A lunar month , also known as a synodic month , is the time it takes for the Moon to complete one full cycle of phases (from new moon to new moon).
Length of a Lunar Month
- Approximately 29.53 days (29 days, 12 hours, 44 minutes, and 3 seconds).
This period varies slightly due to the elliptical shape of the Moon's orbit and gravitational influences from the Earth and Sun. If you want, I can also explain the difference between a lunar month and other types of lunar cycles!
