Re: [Phys-L] Moon distance

But do those areas count as the 'far side'?

Either the South or North Pole region is visible from Earth except for when the Moon is actually crossing the plane of the Earth’s orbit.

I read that China's Change-6 mission will land on the south pole region of
the Moon's far side in 2025. It will collect samples and carry a
retroreflector to measure the Earth-Moon distance. How can this be done
from the far side, or am I missing something?

*Reject publisher contracts that ask you to waive your legal rights*
Authors are granted the 'moral' right to protect the integrity of their works in law.
There is no reason for reputable academic publishers to ask authors to allow them to be able to make changes of any kind, at any time, to authors' works, without the author's approval.
Scholars should not be prepared to abandon their legal right to object to changes that undermine the integrity of their scholarly works.
Academics should refuse to sign publishers' contracts that include clauses that require authors to waive their legal moral rights.
Sign a petition to ask publishers to respect authors' legal rights: *https://science-education-research.com/academic-standards/defend-the-moral-right-to-the-integrity-of-your-scholarly-work/*
