If the Moon didn't rotate, it would not be tidally locked to Earth, meaning we would see all sides of the Moon over time. This would alter the gravitational interactions between the Earth and the Moon, potentially affecting ocean tides. The Moon's appearance in the sky would change dramatically, as we would witness a full rotation of the Moon relative to the stars in about 27.3 days, rather than always seeing the same face. Additionally, the lack of tidal locking could impact the stability of its orbit over long periods.
