When I'm out set up for Sidewalk Astronomy and someone asks why we see
the
same side all the time, I use the simple way of telling them and then
they
are happy.

"The moon takes about 29 days to go around the Earth, at the same time
it's
spinging on it's own at a rate of One Turn every 29 days. Thus the two go
together so it shows the same face to us all the time.

And they don't reply, "Surely that's a miracle"?
