The goal of this virtual lab is to explore how changes in the moon’s orbit and position can impact the different phases of the moon.
HS-ESS1-4 Use mathematical or computational representations to predict the motion of orbiting objects in the solar system.
MS-ESS1-1 Develop and use a model of the Earth-sun-moon system to describe the cyclic patterns of lunar phases, eclipses of the sun and moon, and seasons.
