145. We see only one face of the Moon because it is a flat luminous disc

"Heliocentrists believe the Moon is a ball, even though its appearance is clearly that of a flat luminous disc. We only ever see the same one face (albeit at various inclinations) of the Moon, yet it is claimed that there is another “dark side of the Moon” which remains hidden. NASA states the Moon spins opposite the spin of the Earth in such a perfectly synchronized way that the motions cancel each other out so we will conveniently never be able to observe the supposed dark-side of the Moon outside of their terrible fake CGI images. The fact of the matter is, however, if the Moon were a sphere, observers in Antarctica would see a different face from those at the equator, yet they do not - just the same flat face rotated at various degrees. "

Apparently thinks that simply stating that the Moon's appearance is "clearly that of a flat luminous disc" constitutes a proof.  It doesn't.

"We only ever see the same one face ..."

True, but the Moon oscillates slightly, so even in the same location you will see the face of the Moon vary slightly.   This makes perfect sense if the Moon is a sphere. It is completely impossible if the Moon is a disc.

The following time lapse animation shows this very clearly


Don't believe it?   With the right equipment you can easily take pictured of the Moon yourself over the course of a Month, so why not prove it one way or the other if you are really interested in truth?

"... it is claimed that there is another “dark side of the Moon” which remains hidden"

Our seeing only one face of the Moon is not a convenient co-incidence.  It is a direct consequence of the laws of gravity.

See the following video for an explanation



"... if the Moon were a sphere, observers in Antarctica would see a different face from those at the equator"

You CAN see more of the Moon from a different places on Earth, however because the Moon is 238,900 miles from the Earth, the change in angle is very small.

Let us calculate the difference in angle between the Equator and the South Pole. 

The radius of the Earth is 3949 miles.

The different angle from which the Moon is observed from each is therefore
arcsin( 3949 / 238,900) =  0.95 degrees

This is obviously too small a difference to notice casually, but has been measured.
