Question

2.4 Why do we always see the same side of the Moon? Answer in about 40 words.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Your answer:-

The time taken for the Moon to spin on its axis is almost exactly the same as the time it takes to orbit the Earth. Hence, the Moon always keeps the same side pointing our way. This is not a coincidence. Over billions of years, the Earth’s gravity has forced the Moon to spin synchronously with its orbit.
