We always see the same side of the moon. Is that true or false?

Question

thks

Answer 1

ture. because the rotation of the moon and earth is sycrinizyed

Answer 2

It's true.  The moon is "tidally locked" with Earth, so one lunar rotation exactly equals one lunar orbit.

Answer 3

True

Answer 4

it's true...the moon doesnt spin on an axis like the earth it only orbits us.

Answer 5

yes. If you search for info about moon cycles and moon orbit you should find a more detailed answer

Answer 6

Absolutly True

Answer 7

True, the moon's rotation is tidally locked to the Earth.  There are minor variations called nutation and libration which, over a period of time allows us to see about 58 to 59% of the surface.

Answer 8

true

it was pretty fact when i heard about it.

Answer 9

True, the near side.

Answer 10

It is true.

Answer 11

Tru Dat

Answer 12

Yep.  Moon is in synchronous orbit.

Answer 13

True, to a certain degree.

The Moon is tidally locked in orbit around Earth, meaning that the orbital period and the rotational period are the same. It points the same side to Earth due to this tidal force, but it "wobbles" a little, allowing us to see 59% of the total surface, rather than just 50%.

But yes, it is impossible for us to see most the reverse side.

Answer 14

Yes.  Unless you travel in a spaceship, we here on Earth always see the same side of the Moon.  (not counting pictures of the far side.)

Answer 15

True ;   WE only see one side , as the side next to us is heavier and earth's gravity holds it that way.
