Eccentric orbit. Ellipse with eccentricity of 0.5. Earth's orbit is much less eccentric, and would not be visible in such an image. Derived from http://earthobservatory

axis of the ellipse is twice the length of the minor axis (i.e. the eccentricity is half the square root of 3), so that the red gibbous area shows the theoretical
