Must be synchronized for us to only see one side of the Moon from Earth.

4. How do we know the length of rotation and revolution is 27
How do we know the length of rotation and revolution is Earth days?

6. Moon Phases Investigation
You will use the boxes to record your observations from the Moon Phases Investigation. For each box, complete the following steps.
Color the Sun yellow.
Color the Earth blue.
Recorded your observations during the investigation by shading the far right circle (the moon) with what you see from Earth when the E-M-S are in the positions shown. I will walk you through the first one.
