Where the Moon is in its cycle at this instant — phase, illumination, the sub-solar and sub-Earth points, libration, distance and apparent size, and the next phase and eclipse events. Everything is computed deterministically from astronomy-engine (no live feed, no database). Use the date lens to scrub to any moment — a full moon, a new moon, or an eclipse — and watch every value update.
