The moon makes one revolution on its axis every 27 days, 7 hours and
11
seconds so the same side will face the sun during a one day period.

You do realize that he and smart both thought that
the OP meant that the moon always had the same
side always facing earth not that the Face we can observe
lighted is always the same . Give a bit of insight into
information processing... of the human mind...

The english language is such a whore, sometimes it is hard to tell what is
being said. The sentence I left in above is a case in point.

The OP, based on the title *knew* the side facing the Earth was the same.
Yet the sentence above sounds like the responder believed the Moon was
tidally locked to the Sun. Your first sentence appears for all the world
to say the same thing twice...
