because the other side's on the opposite side.
I think you meant moon. Its because the moon rotaes at the same speed it revolves around earth. So you can only see one side of it from earth.
cuz you have to be in like china to see the other side ;-)
The moon rotates as fast as it orbits the earth, thus only one side faces it.
It's the same reason you can only see one side of your head when you look in a mirror. The astronauts would need a mirror to see round the back.
The same side of the moon always faces Earth due to its synchronous rotation, called tidal locking. This means that the moon's rotation period matches its orbital period around Earth, causing one side to always be facing us while the other side remains hidden from view.
Observers on Earth only ever see the same side of the moon because the moon's rotation period is the same as its orbital period around Earth, causing one side to always face towards us.
Because Earth is turning. It's only ever night time on one side of the Earth, the side not facing the sun.
Actually you can only see the whole moon in space. On earth you can only see about half. No, Just the half of it. That's what the term "dark side of the Moon" stands for. The "dark side" of the Moon is the side unseen from Earth. The moon rotates on its axis once in the time that it take for it to orbit the Earth at this time of its history. The result is that the same side always faces the earth. so we only ever get to see one face of it, while the other side remained a mystery, at least until we managed to go there and have a look.
cause we are asleep
That is because you are looking at the moon from only one side, and the moon does not rotate, so therefor, we don't see the dark side of the moon.
yeah, we can only see the one side of the moon. It makes a rotation every 29 and a half days which is the exact time that it takes to make an orbit around the earth. Due to this phenomenon and seeming coincidence, we can only see one half...
We only see one side of the moon from Earth, a phenomenon known as tidal locking. This means that the same side of the moon always faces Earth due to its synchronous rotation with its orbit around Earth.
