Caption: Figure A1.

Left: orthographic projection of the orbital motion of the Moon around Earth (E). Right: geometrical representation of SZA(θSZA = ∠AOB). A: subsolar point, B: specific location on the Moon (red dot), C: intersecting point of the specific location’s meridian with the equator, and D: (latitude, longitude) = (0, 0), The angles ΛLat = ∠COB: latitude, ΛLon = ∠DOC: longitude, and ﹩\omega =\angle AOD={\theta }_{d}+2\pi \left(\frac{t}{{t}_{\,{\rm{period}}\,}}\right)﹩. The black arrows near points B and D represent the direction of the shift over time due to the Moon’s rotation about its axis in the course of its orbital motion around Earth. The violet arrow points toward Earth. θd is the angle to maintain tidal locking.
