Answer:

The Moon spins in space in a movement called rotation. Oddly enough, it also takes the Moon about 27 days to spin around once (which is much slower than Earth's rotation, which only takes 24 hours). That means the Moon goes all the way around Earth in the same amount of time it takes to spin around just once!
