Hello Physics Forums, this is my first thread here.
My daugher of 9 years is getting interested in the moon and tides and those things.
And she askes me a peculiar question which I could not answer. It goes as follows:
If you put a strong rockets on the moon which turn/spin it on the spot, without moving it in any other way, would we feel it on earth/ would it have an effect on the earth? ("or would it just look pretty?")
If anybody could answer that in a basic way it would be much, much appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

(edit: I hope this is right forum for this kind of question)
