Find a Flash animation showing how the circle of illumination varies by month from three different perspectives: north pole, south pole, and from the sun. The progression of the circle of illumination can be tied to individual months which rapidly scroll by on the bottom right hand portion of the window. The position of light/dark can be frozen for any month by stopping or rewinding the animation.
