Virtual Moon Atlas is a free desktop application for exploring the Moon in detail. It offers high-resolution maps and an interactive globe with thousands of labeled features—craters, maria, rilles, domes, and mountain ranges—along with selenographic coordinates and basic physical data. You can simulate lunar phases, libration, and lighting for any date, time, and observing location to plan sessions and identify features near the terminator. The software provides multiple map layers, such as shaded relief, albedo, and elevation, plus optional grids and labels.
Built-in tools let you search for features by name, measure distances and angles, and match the view to your telescope or binoculars with field-of-view and image flip/mirror options. You can annotate scenes, create printable charts, and export images for guides or presentations. Designed for amateur astronomers, educators, and students, Virtual Moon Atlas turns real mission data into an accessible lunar atlas and a practical observing companion.
