How can it be possible (in terms of coincidences) that the moon always has the same side faced towards earth?
I was just wondering, how is it possible that the moon always has the same side facing the earth? It seems like a huge coincidence.
Actually, it's not just a coincidence. It's a result of a process called synchronous rotation. The moon rotates on its own axis, but it also takes the same amount of time to orbit the earth. This causes the same side of the moon to always face the earth.
