8.8.0 6 Jul
• 8.7.0 - A very exciting release for me, I've updated the moon image with a live rendered model, based on the sun's light shining onto an internal 3D model of the moon, complete with earthshine, accurate craters etc based on NASA 3D models. Very experimental, but it looks beautiful, premium subscribers in particular can move through the days as usual watching shadows move at the craters with a more accurate terminator. Really lovely. I do believe this is the first time I have seen this in a moon app. Very risky for me! Please do report any issues you may see on the support site linked in the app.
