Early astronomers mistakenly referred to the smooth dark areas as Maria (or sea) giving the name terrace (or land) to the bright up land regions. The terms have persisted since, even though the Moon’s surface has long been known to be completely waterless. 1. The Moon’s revolution is responsible for…………………… .
