This infographic series is a visual exploration of lunar science, translating complex astronomical phenomena into clear, engaging vector narratives. The project bridges the gap between scientific data and graphic design, focusing on how the Moon governs the subtle rhythms of our planet.
Lunar Phases & Orbit: A geometric breakdown of synodic months, detailing how the relative positions of the Earth, Moon, and Sun alter light reflection and create the eight distinct lunar phases. The layout intuitively contrasts the Moon’s physical position in orbit against its visual perception from the terrestrial perspective.
Gravitational Influence (The Tides): A visual analysis of gravitational pull and centrifugal forces. The infographics explain the mechanics behind spring tides (when the Sun and Moon align during Full/New Moons) and neap tides (when they are at right angles), illustrating oceanic displacement through minimal vector forms.
Minimalist Visual System: Built upon a monochrome, high-contrast palette and a strict grid structure. Fine lines, vector geometry, and clean typography work together to eliminate visual noise, allowing data percentages, directional force vectors, and spatial scales to lead the narrative.
