| Abstract | ||
| The locations of the Moon, velocity and distance were determined through hundred years using a modified formula Meeus 1998, which is used to calculate the orbit's elements, Additionally which allows us to specify the possible date for monitoring the crescent moon. In this project we describe the orbits, orbit types and orbital elements than describe the orbit of the Moon and the perturbations effect on shape and direction of the Moon's orbit, the orbital elements effect by the all perturbation were calculated directly using empirical formula. The orbital elements of the Moon's orbit for 1326 anomalies months are calculated by our Q. Basic programs and the time variation of the Moon's orbital element with perturbations can be computed by development these programs. The results get the values of the eccentricity, semi-major axis, inclination, longitude of ascending node, longitude of perigee and the anomalistic period and there variation through many years with all perturbations. The results appear that the Moon moves under balance perturbation forces in other word, with constant mean value through many hundred years. | ||
