Just like the sun the moon rises and sets...so as the earth rotates you see the same moon and the same sun it's just when the sun is on one part of the earth you see the moon and vice versa.....
Comment: I can't say that helps much, but I will not delete that answer. This is my answer:
People see the same side of the Moon because gravity has locked the Moon's rotation period at the same length of time as the time the Moon takes to complete one orbit of the Earth.
If you think about it, that means we must always see the same side of the Moon.
People always see the same side of the moon because the moon's rotation period is the same as its orbit around Earth. This phenomenon is known as synchronous rotation. As a result, one side of the moon is always facing Earth, while the other side remains hidden from view.

Do you always see the same side of the moon from eath?
No, the moon rotates on its axis at the same rate it orbits the Earth, so we always see the same side of the moon from Earth. This phenomenon is known as synchronous rotation.
Why can we always see the same side of the moon from earth?
The moon rotates and revolves at the same rate
Is the amount of the lighted side of the moon you can see the same during full and new moon phase?
No, during a full moon, we see the entire lighted side of the moon, whereas during a new moon, the lighted side of the moon is facing away from Earth so we see no lighted side at all.
Does the whole world see the full moon the same way?
No, the earth is round, so not everyone can see the moon at the same time. Only when your side of the world is pointed toward the moon can you see it.
What side of the moon do we see?
We only see one side of the moon from Earth, a phenomenon known as tidal locking. This means that the same side of the moon always faces Earth due to its synchronous rotation with its orbit around Earth.
Do all people on earth see the same side of the moon?
Yes.
Why can't the people of India see the back side of the moon?
The Moon spins at the same rate that it orbits the Earth; once every 27 days. Because of that, the same side of the Moon always faces the Earth. Before the Soviet Luna space probes which took photos of the far side of the Moon, no one had ever known what it looked like. People of India cannot see the far side of the Moon? The People of EARTH cannot see the far side of the Moon.
Why do you see the same side of the moon from earth?
It is because the moon takes the same time to rotate as it does to orbit the earth, meaning we always see the same side of it. In truth we can see a little over half of the moon throughout its rotation, but never the far side of the moon.
Why do we only see the ''near side'' of the moon and never the far side?
The moon spins at the same speed that it orbits the earth so we always see the same side.
What side of the moon do you see from earth?
You always see the same side - as the moon takes the same time to orbit the earth as it does to rotate once on its axis !
Do all earth hemispheres see the same side of the moon?
As long as you're on Earth, you will always see the same side of the moon. This is because the moon is tidally locked with the earth, meaning is rotational period is the same as its revolutionary period. This allows us to always see the same side of the moon, no matter where on earth we are.
Why you always look at the same side of moon?
the reason you only see one side of the moon is because the rotation of the moon and the revolution speed of the moon are the same
Do you see the same side of the moon?
Yes. Because of its locked orbit, the same side of the moon always faces the Earth.
Do you always see the same side of the moon from eath?
No, the moon rotates on its axis at the same rate it orbits the Earth, so we always see the same side of the moon from Earth. This phenomenon is known as synchronous rotation.
Why can we always see the same side of the moon from earth?
The moon rotates and revolves at the same rate
When the Moon is on the same side of Earth as the Sun you will see what type of moon?
an elclispe
Do you see the same side of the moon each night?
Yes ya you just see different portions and shadows of the moon. That's why there is the expression 'dark side of the moon' because it is always the same side that they are talking about (the side that always faces the sun)
