1. Rotation and Revolution - Answer- The moon and Earth revolve and rotate. Rotation
is when a planet or moon turns all the way around or spins on its axis one time.
The axis of rotation is an imaginary line going from the north pole to the south pole.
When a planet or moon travels once around an object this is considered a revolution.
On Earth, a rotation is pretty short - it happens once a day! It is the rotation that makes
the sun appear to come up in the morning and set at night. On Earth, a revolution is
quite a bit longer - one year!
The moon is a little different. The moon rotates once about every 27-29 days, and
revolves once about every 27-29 days. So every time the moon goes around Earth it
turns around one time. That is why the moon always looks the same - we only ever see
one side of it!
2. Moon Phases - Answer- The Moon has phases because it orbits Earth, which causes
the portion we see illuminated to change.
