This is an incredible video. It shows the moon hour by hour, as it looks from out big blue ball, for the entire year of 2012. A must-see, created by NASA.

Folks at the NASA Goddard Scientific Visualization Studio created this animation showing the moon hour by hour as it looks from Earth over the entire year 2012.   According to NASA, the tipping, tilting and rocking are due to Moon’s eliptical orbit and tilt.
