Lunar Phases in 2022 for the Northern Hemisphere | Understanding the Moon's Transformations | NASA
This visualization elucidates the Moon's evolving phases and its subtle libration, captured at hourly intervals throughout the entirety of 2022, as observed from the Northern Hemisphere. Each frame encapsulates the progression over a span of one hour. Additionally, this representation delineates the Moon's orbital positioning, the points directly beneath the Earth and facing the Sun, and its veritable distance from our planet, all meticulously rendered to scale. Craters located near the boundary between illuminated and shadowed portions are identified, along with the designated landing sites of Apollo missions, lunar maria, and other light-reflective features that bask in sunlight.
