I am 63 years old and now finally understand the moon phases. Was sitting outside tonite and saw a crescent moon. Trying to figure out the reason behind it. You explained it so easy. Thank you!

I've watched several videos about this and this was by far the best visualization I've seen, so much better than the computer animated ones everyone else uses.

Ok I’m 59yrs old and have long forgotten being taught that in school. I came on YouTube and watched a couple videos, but your video explained it perfectly! So thank you for sharing and enlightening this ole girl! 👍🏽

This is the best explanation on YouTube. All the others videos fail to show the animation so clearly and accurately. Thanks!

This is what we call being precise and concise. This is the best video I have encountered concerning this. Thank you so much.

I'm like doing BSc final year, finally at age of 20 I understood how phases of moon are formed. Can't thank you enough!!! Such a simple and great explanation

[Genethagenius]

Whoa! I’m an adult and I found this incredibly helpful and interesting! First time I really understand why the moon looks like it does in the sky!

Of every Bil Nye episode in Jr. High and every YT video, you nailed it like a champ. Thank you!

[SoSkkk]

Believe me this is the best demonstration I have ever seen. Great job mam, your teaching skills are phenomenal.

[artinaforoozande]

Thank you very much. I had problems in understanding that, because in the school, our teachers didn't teach us as students well. Now that I watched your video, it is fully understood. I love science.💙

When you realize that all of us are here because of our science teachers: Hey y'all.
