Kapan memakai Moon Libration 3D Explorer

Use this explorer when you want to understand why a tidally locked Moon still shows 59% of its surface - and skip it when you want the lunar phases or the mechanism of tidal locking itself.

• Classroom demos of libration in longitude, latitude, and the 59% result
• Separating the elliptical-orbit wobble from the axial-tilt nod
• Explaining how the near side and far side relate to what we can see

This is an educational visualization with a time-compressed, optionally exaggerated wobble and illustrative surface markers.

Walk the controls in the step-by-step guide, or compare options in vs alternatives. Open the Moon Libration 3D Explorer.
