Describe the process that caused the Moon's orbit and rotation to achieve its current synchronization. (As the Moon orbits the Earth, it rotates once on its axis in exactly the same amount of time it takes to complete one orbit. Because of this synchronization of its orbital period and its rotation period, the Moon always keeps the same face pointed towards the Earth!!)How does the orbit of Mercury around the Sun compare to the orbit of the Moon around the Earth? Does Mercury always keep the same face pointed at the Sun? Why or why not?
