Talk:Synchronous rotation
[edit] How does this work?
How can the moon still rotate about its axis and not face the earth with one side? Can someone explain that to me? Perhaps it could be explained in the article, too? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.93.24.238 (talk) 04:34, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Dead link?
"Diagram illustrating the Moon's synchronous rotation" in external links seems to be dead. Et least it is not available (e404) now (Epimeteus (talk) 19:10, 26 December 2010 (UTC)).
[edit] Discussion of merge ?
Where is the discussion of merging this entry with tidal locking? Why is there no suggestion on the tidal locking page of a merger? What about a merger with synchronous orbit, which would make even more sense? This merger suggestion was made by KlappCK, who didn't even take the trouble to give an argument for the merger himself/herself. -- Ben Best 07:27, 26 February 2012 (UTC)
