Because of a discrepancy between the moon's spin rate and orbital rate, there is a time when viewers from Earth can actually see a little bit past the western edge of its near side. We can catch a glimpse of this sliver of the lunar far side when the moon is at _____, referring to the time in its orbit when it's farthest from our planet. (Read the article here.)

The objective of the game is to find words that can be made with the given letters such that all the words include the letter in the center. You can enter letters by clicking on them or typing them in. Press Enter to submit a word. Letters can be used multiple times in a single word, and words must contain three letters or more for this size layout. Select the Play Together icon in the navigation bar to invite a friend to work together on this puzzle. Pangrams, words which incorporate all the letters available, appear in bold and receive bonus points. One such word is always drawn from a recent Scientific American article, with a hint and link available in the dropdown above this explanation. You can also get hints to other words in the puzzle by hitting the life preserver icon in the game display.

The dictionary we use for this game misses a lot of science words, such as apatite and coati. Let us know at [email protected] any extra science terms you found, along with your name and place of residence, and we might give you a shout out in our daily newsletter!
