    This article was quite hard to understand, and the author called it "Lunar Terminator Paradox", which does not give too many Google hits.

    &quot;Lunar Terminator Illusion&quot; is the thing to search for. This 11-year old Vsauce video did the trick for me: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=Y2gTSjoEExc" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=Y2gTSjoEExc

    Check around the 5m3s timestamp if in hurry, and not interested in other stuff he discusses.
