It really does not, but it is close to a month.

The moon always faces the same way to the earth as it goes around the earth.

So the Moon day is the same as its orbit around the Earth, Roughly 29 days.

Does the moon orbit around itself?

The moon rotates around its own axis, but revolves around the earth. The moon completes one rotation with each revolution around the earth, so one day on the moon (sunrise to sunrise) is equal to one month on earth. This coincidence is the reason only one side of the moon is always facing the earth.


Why can you not stand on earth and see the far side of the moon?

The Moon is tidally locked to Earth; the Moon's "day" and the Moon's month are the same length. So the "near side" of the Moon always faces the Earth, and the "far side" always faces away from Earth.


What unit of time is directly related to one orbit of the moon around the earth?
