Question

Suppose that a future astronaut base on the Moon will need to be able to communicate with the Earth at any time. In order to be able to communicate, the lunar base must be designed so that it is in constant "line of sight" contact with the Earth so that radio signals can be sent back and forth. This means that A) the lunar based must be placed on the far side of the Moon on the dark side of the Moon. B) It is impossible that the Earth can always be seen from any one place on the Moon. C) on the near side of the Moon.

Answer 1

On the near side of the moon

We see the same side of the moon every night because it takes 27 days for the moon to rotate on its axis, and it takes about 27 days for it to complete one revolution around earth, this means that we see the same side of the moon every night

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer is option C) on the near side of the Moon.

Explanation:

Actually, we always see the same face of our satellite because the Moon takes the same time to rotate once upon itself than to go around the Earth (a little more than 27 days). The result is that the same side of our satellite always points to us.
