In Eric's planning to take photos of the Plato Crater, Copernicus Crater and Rupes Cauchy Crater, he is trying to

figure out if the craters are always facing the earth. He knows that the moon spins on its axis. Doesn't that mean the
craters will be facing away from the earth at some point in the moon/lunar cycle as the moon orbits the earth?

Are the carters always facing the earth as the moon orbits the earth?

Please help!!!
