Why half of the earth is always in darkness even though the sun is always shining?
Half of the Earth is always in darkness because the Earth rotates on its axis, causing different parts to face away from the sun at any given time. This rotation creates day and night cycles as different areas of the Earth receive sunlight.
The Moon's near side always faces earth due to what?
The Moon's near side always faces Earth due to synchronous rotation, which means it takes the same amount of time for the Moon to rotate once on its axis as it does to orbit Earth. This causes one side of the Moon to always be facing us.
Why do we see the same face of moon always?
We always see the same face of the Moon because it is tidally locked to Earth. This means that the Moon's rotation period on its axis is the same as its orbital period around Earth, taking about 27.3 days to complete both. As a result, the same side, known as the near side, is always facing our planet, while the far side remains hidden from view.
