Tidal coupling is a gravitational phenomenon when a celestial object, such as the Moon, orbits very close to another massive object, such as Earth. In this case, the Earth's gravitational pull on the Moon creates a tidal force that causes the Moon to deform. This deformation, in turn, causes an additional gravitational force acting on the Moon, causing its rotation to synchronize with its orbit. For this reason, we always see the same face as the moon.
This phenomenon is not exclusive to the Moon and Earth. It also occurs in other planetary and lunar systems in the universe.
