Clementine Moon Spin

Visualizations by Alex Kekesi Released on August 27, 2007

This animation rotates around a virtual moon showing Clementine data. The first frame and last frame of the animation match up to allow continuous cycling of the rotation.

This print resolution image of the moon using Clementine data is the view we are most likely to see when the moon is full.

This print resolution image of the moon using Clementine data shows the far side of the moon. This is the side we never see, since the moon always faces us from the same direction.
