Rotation and Orbit
Like the planets, the Moon has two types of movement: orbit and rotation.
The Moon orbits, or travels, around Earth. It takes 27 days for the Moon to orbit the Earth.
The moon also rotations, or spins. It completes one rotation in about 27 days.
It takes the same time for the moon to orbit and rotate!
