Why do you see one side of the moon and never see the other side?

because the light reflects on the moon and we only see the lighted side


What is the part of the moon you can see from earth?

you could see the halve of one side. But on the other side its pitch black. sun never shines in the other side of the moon


Why do you see one side of the moon during a full moon?

During a full moon, the side of the moon facing Earth is fully illuminated by the sun, making it appear as a complete circle from our perspective. The side not facing Earth is in shadow, causing us to only see the illuminated side during a full moon.


What part of the moon do earthlings see?

Humans inhabiting Earth never see the dark side of the moon. The reason humans can never view this side of the moon is because the time it takes for the Moon to rotate once is the same amount of time it takes for it to orbit around the Earth. Therefore, humans will never see the dark side of the moon.


Why do you never see the far side of the moon?

You never see the far side of the moon because the moon rotates around Earth much, much faster than it revolves on it's axis. Hope this helped!


How many times does the moon rotate on its axis one trip around the earth?

During one trip around the Earth, the moon rotates one time, because its rotation and revolution are about the same. That is why we only see one side of the moon (the near side) and never the far side.


Why do we only see the ''near side'' of the moon and never the far side?

The moon spins at the same speed that it orbits the earth so we always see the same side.


How many times the moon rotate on its axis during one trip around the earth?

During one trip around the Earth, the moon rotates one time, because its rotation and revolution are about the same. That is why we only see one side of the moon (the near side) and never the far side.


How many times a year do you see the far side of the moon?

Never


Why do you see the same side of the moon from earth?

It is because the moon takes the same time to rotate as it does to orbit the earth, meaning we always see the same side of it. In truth we can see a little over half of the moon throughout its rotation, but never the far side of the moon.


What are the different mysteries of the moon?

There are many interesting facts about the moon, perhaps not mysteries though. For example, one may find it interesting that the same side of the moon always faces earth. In other words, without the help of satellites, we would have never even seen what the "dark" side of the moon looks like. The dark side of the moon is not actually even dark all the time. It only seems that way to us because we never see it. Sunlight hits the back side of the moon just as often as it hits the side that we see. The reason that we never see that side of the moon is because the moon is in a gravitational lock with the earth. Its orbit is equal to the rotation to the earth. So one earthly rotation (1 day) is the same amount of time that the moon takes to travel around the earth (one lunar year).


Why is it that you cannot see the other side of the moon from earth?

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.
