Is the moon eggshaped or even a flat whitescreen for the gods, if not then why doesn't it spin? The same face of the moon has been recorded in art from the stoneage and forth. What does the back of the moon look like? And another thing -- why can't any of the astronauts remember anything from their moonwalks?

It does rotate, one rotation per month.

Not so, I'm afraid. It revolves around the earth, but it doesn't rotate or spin around it's own axis. Since the earliest recoded art showing the face of the moon, the same picture is shown. All we see is the same side of the moon year in and year out. Why? I've never come accross a good explanation for this.

So if I take a ball and tie it to a string and then start spinning around my y-axis like a hammer thrower, the ball is rotating around it's axis?
Why is there no believable photage of the back of the moon?

Somehow this picture looks a bit suspicious... Not much there compared to the front side...

there are striations that run north/south about every 1/32 of an inch in that picture.

Of course, regrettably, you're asking questions....getting good answers...then immediately denying the answers, despite their uniformity. So what's the point of asking the question?
