published by Larry Molnar

This website provides an interactive applet and tutorial on understanding the sun-earth-moon relationship. There are three tutorial pages that explain the elements of the lunar phases diagram one-by-one. Second, there is the lunar phases tool and quiz. The tool is an interactive version of the diagram and can be used to solve the problems posed by the quiz.
