Why do we see only one side of the moon?
Short Answer

Solution
The Moon rotates on its axis in the same amount of time it takes to revolve around the Earth, about 27.3 days. Because these two motions are synchronised, the same side of the Moon always faces Earth. So we see only one side of the Moon.
