COSMIC MESSAGE
Our Moon's appearance changes throughout its cycle, a lunation. This time-lapse shows the Moon as it orbits Earth, with the sunlit portion first growing, then shrinking. The Moon always presents the same face to Earth, though its apparent size changes slightly due to its elliptical orbit. A slight wobble, called libration, is also visible.
