For an interesting animation of the moon, see our 'Moondance' Page. WARNING: It takes a while to load - it's a 465 K animated gif, but it's worth the wait. (Click your "Back" button to return here.) The image runs through the full lunar month showing the phases and the libration of our Sister Moon. It seems to get bigger and smaller because the Moon is closer during the new phase and further away when full.
