Welcome to the Cesium community @asikbabu!

Can you explain a bit more what you’re trying to do? Sharing a Sandcastle example of what you have so far helps a lot, see: [How to share custom Sandcastle examples](https://community.cesium.com/t/how-to-share-custom-sandcastle-examples/9828)

If you need to visualize the moon instead of the Earth, you’ll need to find satellite imagery of the moon to load in CesiumJS.

Have you tried uploading it to Cesium ion ([Cesium ion](https://cesium.com/ion)) ? You may need to reproject it as explained here:
