3/16/2024 0 Comments Shadow on google earth 3d view![]() ![]() Google Earth is likely the only app to add an orbiting moon to the already "sky-orbital" sun ![]() Neither bing nor apple have adequate Earth+Sun in sky modelling, never mind any moon in sky orbit My query was not about existing apps which do not do what Google Earth does with the Sun If you don't know, others working on a possibilty may know I have mobile apps that serve similar "scheduling" tools, like Star Chart (visualize all celestial objects in 3d orbit relative to each other) and LunaSolCal Mobile (moonphase/rise/set sunrise/set direction/azimuth) vs Google maps (not google earth 3d scenery) Imagine just the right kind of moonphase half/quarter crescent rising over the horizon of ones favorite cityscape, tourist scenery, mountain range, valley, river, homestead, etc, etc, etc.Ĭhris Peats "Heavens Above" is missing 3D virtual Google Earth modeled landscapes (missing Earth itself) Imagine modelling a lunar eclipse shadow blanketing daytime scenery on Google Earth, at midday, at dawn, or dusk? In context of Earthscapes (where it happens what it looks like daytime or nighttime, dawn/dusk) against ones favorite virtual google earth 3d landscapes/cityscapes/tourist destinations, etc. If google produces an accurate orbiting moon, one could forecast/plan/visualize lunar eclipses (red), solar eclipses getting a screenshot of the virtual moon rising or moon setting behind your favorite google earth cityscape or landscape, is not yet possible, because the virtual google moon isn't in virtual orbit around google earth Has not been developed to appear in virtual Google Earth, so similar scenic lunar presence can be capturedĮ.g. getting a screenshot of the virtual sun rising or moon setting behind your favorite google earth cityscape or landscape is easy (this is not a complicated feat, but rather super fun 'n' easy)īut you know the next most important thing in the sky is the moon itself, which as of 2017 (January) Then you know you get a virtual Earth with the Sun sky position includedĮ.g. If you know how GoogleEarth's sun mode (choose custom: day/night/time/date/day/month/year) works ![]()
