Moon Phases 2022 – Northern Hemisphere NASA

This 4K presentation illustrates the Moon's phases and slight wobble over the course of 2022, as observed from the Northern Hemisphere. Each frame corresponds to an hour. The visualization also displays the Moon's orbital position, points directly under the Earth and the Sun, and its distance from our planet, accurately depicted. Craters located near the dividing line between light and dark are named, along with the sites where Apollo missions landed, dark volcanic plains, and other bright features illuminated by the Sun. The video was created by Ernie Wright (USRA) at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, with editing by David Ladd (AIMM), accompanied by the musical track "Build the Future" by Alexander Hitchens from Universal Production Music.
