Question

Short note on Faces of Moon?​

Answer 1

The moon is the Earth’s only natural satellite. As the Earth moves round the sun, so the moon in turn revolves round the Earth. As it orbits the Earth, the moon also turns on its axis. The time taken to complete one rotation is the same as that taken for one orbit- about 29 ¼ days. So the same side of the moon always faces the Earth.

Answer 2

$\huge \mathfrak \red{a} \green{n} \red{s} \green{w} \red{e} \green{r}$

$\tex{The different shapes of the lit portion of the Moon that can be seen from Earth are known as phases of the Moon. Each phase repeats itself every 29.5 days. The same half of the Moon always faces the Earth, because of tidal locking. So the phases will always occur over the same half of the Moon's surface.$
