Description

A project I started back in 2020 where I'd like to capture the extremes of the lunar libration, and showcase them in a short animation. So far I have managed to grab something as building blocks for what the final project would look like. More work to be done, and Moons to hunt, but I'm happy with what I have right now.

Couldn't find how to properly note down libration in degrees per cardinal points, so I took the liberty to express North and East with + and - values, where + is showing more on the N/E side, and - will be glimpsing more on the opposite way. The animation goes N S E W.

These are the areas covered by degree
+6.6° N
-6.0° N
+5.0° E
-4.4° E

Let me know what you think and how I could improve my work.
