selene

Lunar phases in motion. Selene is a local lunar reference app with current phase and illumination, built as a calmer visual interface instead of bloated astronomy clutter.

Moon calendar, timeline, lunation, age, moon and sun distance, moon tilt, local observation with current location — plus Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets.
