Since I am not a science major my question is this: The earth is rotating at approxmately a 1000 mph and the moon is revolving around earth once every twenty eight days while we're both revolving around the sun every 365 days, how come we never get to see the dark side of the moon from earth while the sun gets to see all 360 degrees of planet earth and the moon together? What's going on? Is there an invisable string between earth and the moon called gravity that keeps the moon looking straieght at earth without rotating away so we can't see it's dark side? Then, If that's true, how come the invisable string called gravity between earth and the sun dosen't stop us from spinning on our axis while we revolve around the sun?
