The Moon always points the same side towards Earth and if you were on that side facing Earth, the Earth would always be in the sky. It would neither rise or set. If you were on the opposite side of the Moon you would never see the Earth at all and would not know of its existance. Spooky eh? Neil Robertson. I just had to come back out of my hole for moment... Maybe there is an answer to our geostationary satellite in this... For moon people, the earth would be the mother of all geostats. Hmmmm. Darn it I just realised something. It might be still in the sky, but it would be rotating a 24 hour cycle.. No good for a geostat doing that. without three transmitters. You see what I mean Cheryl? Its impossible to know the truth from any position. I told you it was fun....

On the moon you will see the earth rise and fall close to every 24 hours. You will see the sun rise and fall every 28 days close enough.. and it will look every bit as natural as we think the sun and moon rise is here. In fact you could even conclude the moon was the centre of the universe, and have no reason to think otherwise, except for you came from the earth and were told and brought up to believe it was all different...." This is only partly correct. If you were on the Moon you would see the Sun rise and fall over approx 28 days however what you saw of the Earth would depend on where on the Moon you were situated. The Moon always points the same side towards Earth and if you were on that side facing Earth, the Earth would always be in the sky. It would neither rise or set.
