The Overview Effekt | Apollo 8, Artemis 1 and 2 Orbit Comparison

A 1-to-1 scale 3D visualization of the moon's orbit, Apollo 8, Artemis 1, and Artemis 2 and why they all look so different.

We also look at why the moon's orbit precesses, why lunar transfers look like straight lines, and why reentry from the moon is so much harder than from low Earth orbit.


Explore the orbital mechanics behind historic and upcoming lunar missions. This visualization compares the trajectories of Apollo 8, Artemis 1, and Artemis 2 to understand the complexities of traveling to the moon.
