Sun, Moon & Earth

Sun, Moon & Earth Applet
 

This interactive applet displays the positions of the Sun and Moon on the horizon for any date, time and location, and on a world map with day and night regions. The times of rise and setting, the declination, the Greenwich hour angle of sun and moon, the equation of time, and more data are computed.

SunMoon Horizon sun moon horizon azimuth
 This Java applet displays the azimuth of the Sun and the Moon at rise or set. A table can be generated.

Moon Phases


Moon Year


SunMoon Map


Moon Data
Altitude, azimuth and phase of the Moon.

Elevation & Azimuth of the Moon


Moon
Java applet showing the phase and the age of the moon for any date, and computing the duration of the lunation.


Moon Motion

This Java applet computes the motion of the moon (true longitude) and display the orbit.
Moon Distance
The applet is computing the distance of the Moon from the Earth (kilometers), the apparent angular size (arc minutes), the illuminated fraction of the disc of the Moon (per cent), the Moon's phase, and the times of apogee and perigee.
Moon Libration moon libration
 Java applet computing and visualising the optical libration of the Moon



MoonLight
 moonlight
 The brightness of the daily squares ist proportional to the illuminated fraction of the Moon.
