The Moon

The Moon - This is what the visual would look like if our Moon rotated on an axis. Since the Moon does not rotate, all we see is the same surface side every night. A bit of a phenomenon as far as satellite moons go in our Solar System, and maybe even in all of the Milky Way Galaxy. Notice all the craters that have been caused by meteors over the millions of years.

I put this video together in Blender, version 3.4.1, using a Moon image provided by NASA. It is pretty much an accurate depiction of the Moon if we were to see The Dark Side ( The Far Side, actually ), the side which we never get to see with our naked eyes. Three full rotations in full 4K for your viewing pleasure. It looks best on a large screen 4K HDTV.

Moon info:
It takes 27.3 days for the Moon to travel all the way around the Earth.

Distance from the Earth to the Moon is 238,900 miles.

The Moon’s surface gravity is about one-sixth of Earth's at 0.1654 g.

The Moon’s average orbital speed is 1.022 kilometers per second.

The Moon's diameter is about 3,500 kilometers, more than a quarter of Earth's, with the face of the Moon comparable to the width of Australia.

The crater that looks like a naval that is on the southern portion of the Moon of the surface that faces Earth, is called the Tycho Crater.
