Moon Phase Photo Maps

What is Moon Phase Photo Maps?

This app presents a comprehensive series of actual photographs capturing the phases of the Moon, each with prominent lunar features clearly marked and labeled. Unlike a traditional map, this unique approach allows users to readily identify features as they appear in the real-world, rather than relying on an idealized representation. The app prioritizes the display of features along the terminator the boundary between the illuminated and dark portions of the Moon's surface where the low sun angle makes them most prominent. As users navigate through the different phases by swiping left or right, they can tap on each image to reveal the detailed map overlay highlighting the key landmarks
