Explanation: No one, presently, sees the Moon rotate like this. That's
because the Earth's moon is tidally locked to the Earth, showing us only one
side. Given modern digital technology, however, combined with many detailed
images returned by the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO), a high
resolution virtual Moon rotation movie has now been composed. The above
time-lapse video starts with the standard Earth view of the Moon. Quickly,
though, Mare Orientale, a large crater with a dark center that is difficult
to see from the Earth, rotates into view just below the equator. From an
entire lunar month condensed into 24 seconds, the video clearly shows that
the Earth side of the Moon contains an abundance of dark lunar maria, while
the lunar far side is dominated by bright lunar highlands. Two new missions
are scheduled to begin exploring the Moon within the year, the first of
which is NASA's Lunar Atmosphere and Dust Environment Explorer (LADEE).
LADEE, which launched just over a week ago, is scheduled to begin orbiting
the Moon in October and will explore the thin and unusual atmosphere of the
Moon. In a few months, the Chinese Chang'e 3 is scheduled to launch, a
mission that includes a soft lander that will dispatch a robotic rover.
