THE SURFACE SAME MOON ALWAYS SEEN FROM EARTH
Have you ever observed the moon? If you noticed, the
surface of the moon that we see
tend to be the same every day. Earth facing
the moon's surface is a surface
that has a series of relief
that many people
call resembles a rabbit. No, this time we do not
discuss about the
rabbit image. We will discuss
why the surface of the moon that faces the
Earth is always the same every
day.
We know that the moon revolves around the earth, and
the earth itself also rotates on its axis. But maybe
we do not know or do not realize is
the month also rotates
on its axis. Turnover conducted this month
on its axis exactly one rotation for every time
he surrounds the earth. Because this is the moon always appeared on the
same face of the earth. If it does not rotate on its axis, which is revealed
in the face of
the earth will always
be changing.
How can it happen? The cause is
the attractive force caused by
the Earth's gravity and the
moon. The force of gravity moon of ups and downs greatly
affect seawater. By contrast,
Earth's gravity also affects the soil on the
moon (not the sea, as on the moon no sea).
Well, it turns
out attractive forces also
affect the movement of each. This is what causes
the movement of the moon being so organized and
aligned with the Earth's movement.
As information, the movement of the earth is also affected by the moon's gravitational force. But the effect
is not as great as the influence of Earth's gravity on the moon.
