this is a nasa lie
I definitely edited it to be spherical before posting
you never see its backside, nerd. Riddle me that.
Same thing with moons Callisto, Ganymede, Europa, and Io. They all have different sizes meaning to accomplish that they have different rotation speeds - yet still all keep the same face towards planet as they orbit, meaning that each moon turns once on its axis for every orbit around Jupiter or Saturn But, the view of the moons (from anywhere except the planet) is that you are always seeing their backside and frontside. The view from planet is that they face the same way.
Other moons such as Hyperion and Phoebe do not do this. You constantly see both sides from Jupiter surface.
The sun is so resplendent, you cannot look upon his face. Sound familiar? The moon is so modest, she never shows her backside, except to her spouse, the sun, during solar eclipses. That's when they have sex and make the stars.
A thought that is incredibly perplexing
