The Moon Wall Chart
The Moon wall chart provides a comprehensive and visually engaging overview of Earth’s only natural satellite, making complex lunar science easy to understand for learners of all ages. It begins with a detailed explanation of the Moon’s origin, size, orbit, and synchronous rotation, clearly explaining why only one side of the Moon constantly faces Earth.
A large central section focuses on the near side of the Moon, identifying major surface features such as maria, terrae, and impact craters. This is complemented by additional views showing the far side, east side, and west side of the Moon, allowing learners to compare surface variations across different perspectives. The interior of the Moon is illustrated through a cutaway diagram that clearly labels the crust, mantle layers, outer core, and inner core, helping students understand lunar structure.
The wall chart also explains the phases of the Moon, from new moon through waxing and waning phases to full moon, supported by orbit diagrams that show the Moon’s position relative to Earth and the Sun. Another key section explores the Moon’s tidal influence on Earth, clearly illustrating spring tides, neap tides, high tides, and low tides.
Additional features include notable lunar craters, surface formations, and comparative images showing the Earth as seen from the Moon. This educational poster is ideal for classrooms, science labs, and astronomy learning spaces, delivering clear visuals and structured information in a single reference chart.
Our wallcharts are engineered for durability and educational impact, designed to withstand the rigors of both classroom and home environments.
