Back Side of the Moon
« on: March 12, 2019, 10:16:58 AM »
When airplanes fly overhead, as they are coming toward us we see the front of the plane and after it passes us overhead and goes away from us we see the back of the plane.

How is it that we always see the same side of the Moon coming and going?

Airplanes are a few miles up.

The moon is a few hundred thousand miles up.

It's perspective.

The moon is tidally locked to the earth. So you will not see the other side.

Of course, from the perspective of rational science. But I meant from the Flat Earth perspective.

Projected by what projector located where?

Is "projection" really the Flatlander explanation? LOL

You do see around the side a little bit, it's called libration
