Why dont you base your book an a fictional moon which has a fictional

you seem like less of a dumbass... like Rand Simberg and Brett Buck

that
this moon of yours can obey your 'rules' in the book... Its dangerous
doing
a fiction book on a non-fiction stage... you still need to be
believable,
so, like I said, make it ALL fictional...

uhh... I don't think such a moon can exist at all - well, not such a moon
which one side always faced the planet, anyways.

Actually if you had a moon tidal locked to a planet that was tidal locked to
its sun, you could have an interesting situation.




Best of luck...

Oh and if you want to be precise about our moon, its lunar month is 27.3
days... but who's counting?
