A 2017 moon calendar renders each day as a small orthographic projection of the Moon, showing its phase across the year in a grid of months and days. Clicking the visualization highlights the current day with an animated red ring. Built with D3 v4, it uses `d3.geoPath` and `d3.geoOrthographic` to draw each moon, with phase angles calculated from a lunar period formula derived from a known new moon epoch. The SVG output is organized using `d3.scaleLinear` and `d3.scalePoint` for axes, and dates are generated via `d3.timeDays`.
