Question

Why is one side of the moon called "the dark side of the moon"?

Answer 1

Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

The answer is option C or "The amount of time it takes to rotate around it's axis is the same amount of time it takes to revolve around Earth."Remember that the Earth and the Moons amount of time to make a full rotation is almost in sync and they're two sides of the moon, one side we do not see and that's because that side is currently faced away from the Earth which is called the dark side of the moon. Each side has two weeks oh night, and two weeks of day because of how long it takes the moon to revolve, so while we have a side towards the Earth which is illuminated by the sun we have another pointing away in the dark.

Hope this helps.
