Moon

Bartosz Ciechanowski's interactive article explores the Moon's appearance and movement in Earth's sky, featuring simulations that show how the Moon's position changes daily and how its illumination varies over time. The article explains that while we can only ever see one side of the Moon from Earth, its position appears to shift and wobble across the sky due to orbital mechanics. The piece promises to delve deeper into topics including gravity, tides, and eclipses as it examines the Moon's relationship with our planet.
