[00:00] Well, what about the other side? Well, it turns out we don't see the other side because the moon is rotating perfectly in sync Like, what are the chances that those would sync up perfectly?
[00:16] If the moon was perfectly spherical in balance, it would spin like this, and one side wouldn't be But the moon's not perfectly spherical.
[00:28] Over time, that constant pull of Earth's gravity has caused it to be sort of slightly oblong. But now you'll see, since the center of gravity of our Moon doesn't exactly line up with the axis by It always happens to be that the heavy side of the Moon will always face the strongest source of
[00:46] Out in space, the actual Moon's nearest source of gravity is still the center of the Earth, which means that the real Moon will always have the same side pulled towards us, just like with
[00:59] And that will never change.
