  • Only one side of the Moon ever faces us because Earth's force of gravity on it is not uniform. This is related to our ocean tides and a lengthening of days on Earth. Duration: 7:58.

      @@paulmerritt8593 UNDERSTANDING WHAT IS THE COMPARATIVE AND BALANCED BODILY/VISUAL EXPERIENCE OF THE MAN WHO IS STANDING ON WHAT IS THE MOON:
      The BULK DENSITY of the Moon is comparable to that of (volcanic) basaltic LAVAS on the Earth. The energy density of LAVA IS about three times that of water. SO, now, get a good and CLEAR look at what is the ORANGE SUN.
      The human body is, in fact, about as dense as water ! Look up at the blue sky. Importantly, this is a balanced BODILY/VISUAL EXPERIENCE !! The Moon is ALSO BLUE, AS it is barely visible then; AND the Earth is ALSO BLUE. SO, let's now match up (on balance) the eye, the blue sky, AND the ORANGE "Sun"/LAVA. Notice the basic match in sizes and brightness when considering the SETTING AND fully illuminated Moon AS WELL.
      (Most of the human body is water, with an average of roughly 60 percent. The average density of the Moon is also 60 percent in comparison with that of the Earth.) Beautiful.
      Relatively speaking, the terrestrial moon is, in fact, roughly a match (regarding it's size, at 27 percent) WITH the surface land area of the Earth (at 29 percent).
      In conclusion, in establishing the comparative AND BALANCED BODILY/VISUAL EXPERIENCE of gravity on what is the Moon, we would multiply one HALF times one third in order to get the correct answer. This explains quantum gravity, AS E=MC2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity; AS gravity/acceleration involves BALANCED inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE. Accordingly, the rotation of WHAT IS THE MOON matches it's revolution !!! Great.
      Consider the relation with the tides. The Moon is ALSO BLUE.
      E=MC2 IS F=ma ON BALANCE. This NECESSARILY represents, INVOLVES, AND DESCRIBES what is possible/potential AND actual IN BALANCE, AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. In conclusion, I have mathematically proven that the gravity of what is THE MOON is ONE SIXTH in direct comparison with what is THE EARTH/ground; AS gravity/acceleration involves BALANCED inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE; AS E=MC2 IS F=ma; AS GRAVITATIONAL force/energy IS proportional to (or BALANCED with/as) inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy.
      Think QUANTUM GRAVITY !!!
      Think energy DENSITY. It all CLEARLY makes perfect sense ON BALANCE.
      The ENERGY DENSITY of LAVA is about THREE TIMES greater than water. There would be no gravity on the blue Earth, AS the EYE then stands in balanced relation WITH what is the BLUE sky !! BALANCED BODILY/VISUAL EXPERIENCE does then dictate that the gravity of WHAT IS THE MOON would be reduced by (and at) one half, thereby bringing the surface gravity of what is THE MOON to BALANCE with that of THE EARTH/ground at one sixth. So, one half (ON BALANCE) of one third is one sixth. The orange "Sun" AND what is THE MOON ARE BALANCED with what is THE EYE. (Think about what is LAVA.)
      Notice, comparatively, that these forms or manifestations ARE semi-detached in relation to touch/tactical EXPERIENCE !!
      Moreover, the Moon is TERRESTRIAL in COMPARISON; SO (ON BALANCE) the Moon is ALSO then about one quarter (at 27 percent) the size of EARTH/ground !! The blue Pacific OCEAN takes up about HALF of the view of what is the Earth ON BALANCE !! SO, we WOULD multiply ONE HALF (ON BALANCE) in order to account for WHAT IS THE MOON, this ORANGE "Sun", AND LAVA on balance !!
      Now, in conclusion, the land surface area of the Earth is 29 percent. This is exactly ON BALANCE WITH BOTH one third AND one fourth, AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity !
      E=MC2 IS CLEARLY F=ma ON BALANCE ! Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. Great.

      The side we only can see has asteroid/meteor impacts sites all over it, how is that possible if its only facing the earth? Did earth shoot at it with its own meteorites? Or did meteorites slingshot around the moon to hit it? If that is lol, the impact sites would look like a plain crash and have drag of moon dirt not big holes... Unless it stopped in space looked down and said "Hmm... I want to plop myself right ova m'hea... And the vibrated itself giving it more kinetic energy build up due to the lack of room to gather more speed so it can drill deep deep into the God Damn Moon LMFAO! That is all...

      Yes it's pretty good. One minor exception was the explanation of tidal locking implied that the moon would tidally lock if it was spherical. Tidal locking depends on deformation. If it is not deformed and it's inertial mass is distributed evenly it will not lock. Well it might, given enough time because nothing is perfectly rigid but the deformation came before the tidal locking when the moon was close to the Earth and molten.

    Best explanation ever, fantastic. I finally get why the moon being "tidally locked" around the earth entails a time taken to complete one revolution (27 days) and the time taken to orbit around the earth (27.322 days) being near equivalent- and thus 360 degree rotation time is (99%) synchronised with the time it takes to complete one 360 degree orbit. So observers see 99% the same face (give or take the viewing of 8 degrees of the far side) Thank-you.

    Easy explanation for people with a school project and don’t have time for the video:
    This is called “synchronous rotation of the moon”. The side we see is the “near side”, while the one we don’t see is called the “far side”. Part of the reason we only see the near side is because of the rotation of the moon while it orbits the Earth.
    Why does it rotate like this? Because of the Earth’s gravitational pull and how large the moon is, the pull is stronger on the near side and the far side. This odd gravitational pull mechanism causes the near side to be “pulled” towards the Earth, causing it to face us.
    Did that help? Just thought I’d try to help the confused people in the comments.

      Flat Earth Mind Poeples, nothing is rendered "weightless." An orbit is called free fall because an object in orbit is falling. Have you ever been on an amusement park ride that did free fall? During the time you are falling you can't feel your weight. But when and if you ever hit bottom you would feel it then.

    This is easily the best explanation I've ever seen visually with the added benefit of having answers to common questions that intrinsically come after understanding the basic mechanics of gravitational pull and rotation. As I speculated whether the earth's rotational speed had ever been faster in the past, and whether it would slow to match the moons orbital speed, you answered both questions. I know I learned all this in school, almost 15 years ago, but because of the abstract nature of these concepts, it's all too easy to forget these little details. Thank you for your hard work

      3) The spot which was shown last is where the surveyor 6 got landed.And it is landed on sinus medii on the near side of the moon
      sinus medii is located at the intersection of the moons equator and Prime meridian as seen from the earth this feature is located in the central part of the moons near side and it is the point closest to the earth. So I guess looking from there it will definetly be seeing the earth and the sun according to its rotation

      @@manishasoni2074 Really glad that it helped you :) and sorry that I didn't completely understood the second question like which part ,you confused with ¿
      Near side of the moon is the visible side of the moon which is turned towards the earth.
      Because of that,the intersection of the moon's equator and Prime meridian is considered on the moons near side and it is also the central point.
      The point which is referred to any divison of the moon into two hemispheres
      one more thing to consider is that the moons axis of rotation is tilted as well as earth's.but moon's tilt is at an angle of 5.15° with respect to the plane of the earths orbit about the sun
      *if this tilt of moon was zero. We could have total Solar and Lunar eclipse every month
      and also the moon's orbit is not circular. It is elliptical. There are so much things to consider on the other side. feel free to ask questions :)

As another person said , this is the first time I’ve ever got a grasp on the subject. The way you used the yellow line to show the moon’s rotation all while revolving around the earth was such a great way to show how it all works. I now have a grasp of the process. It’s not the strongest grasp but at least I can conceptualize the process. I would love for you to do a video on why the sun and moon appear bigger on the horizon. I’m no flat earther. I know it’s some sort of optical illusion but I don’t believe it’s because of having buildings or land features as a backdrop. I think it must have something to do with the atmosphere? Maybe?
