But the advice is mixed for summer flights. âI would suggest buying your airfares for summer as soon as you can,â said Krista Pappas, global travel industry director for Bing, citing high fuel prices, tight seating capacity and strong consumer demand as a recipe for rising rates.
A sidereal period is also defined as the position of an object with respect to the stars. The synodic month is a bit longer than the sidereal month. When a synodic month lasts 29 days, 12 hours, and 44 minutes, a sidereal month lasts 27 days, 7 hours, and 43 minutes.
The Moonâs synodic period is the time between successive recurrences of the same phase; e.g., between full moon and full moon. The synodic period of a planet is the time required for the Earth to overtake it as both go around the Sunâor, in the case of fast-moving Mercury or Venus, for the planet in question to overtake the Earth.
