[edit]

We wanted to learn all these terms in a flashcard format so we built one and made it freely available. Thought it would be helpful for anyone who wanted to learn the content of this glossary in a flashcard format like Anki to also be able to discover that they exist and have access to it from the source.

Was going to suggest it to be added in the external links section like the following but as it is linking to our own site, following the instructions of the Wikipedia guidelines, thought it would be best to leave this in the talk page for other contributors to see if it would be relevant or see if there was a better place/format to put it

Definition of libration

[edit]

The definition of libration must be amended. The present definition includes only a purely geometric effect (so-called "optical" libration). Aside from that, there exists "physical" libration, an effect comprising actual variations of spin in the inertial frame. This effect is of a great importance. 71.126.140.180 (talk) 19:24, 12 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
