The moon is our closest neighbor in space As the moon revolves around the Earth, the Earth revolves around the Sun The position of the Earth and Moon and Sun cause Phases of the Moon, the Tides and Eclipses The moon revolves around the Earth in the same time as the moon rotates on its axis. As a result, the same side of the moon is ALWAYS facing the Earth
