Why Does The Moon Look Upside Down From Australia?
In a less extreme case, someone living at 45 degrees North of the Equator (exactly halfway between the North Pole and the Equator) and someone living at 45 degrees south of the Equator, (halfway between the South Pole and the Equator) both standing on the ground, have their heads both pointed “up” but at 90 degrees relative to each other. Since their North/South separation is still an up/down change, then if the two moongazers could swap places, they’d say the Moon had rotated by about 90 degrees. It’s exactly the same kind of perspective shift on the Moon that my friend and I, at the North and South poles, have when looking outward.
