Why don't we ever see the far side of the moon? From Earth, it appears as if the moon doesn't rotate at all, but it does spin on its axis, just like Earth does. However, the moon is tidally locked to our planet. That means it takes just as long for the moon to rotate about its axis as it does to orbit Earth — roughly one month.
This is definitely an interesting read about the moon getting its own time zone.
It actually makes perfect sense in so many ways. I really hope since the moon time zone won't honor DST(Daylight Savings Time) that this helps us here on Earth get rid of it as well and not honor it going forward.

Voici une p'tite aquarelle que j'ai nommée "Au clair des lunes", et qui représentent mes deux personnages principaux, Nagarios et Maane, en train de regarder le clair des lunes. Bon visionnage ! 🌙

Humans are projected to stay for a long period of time on the surface of the Moon.
