Model?
This is the TRUTH. It says so here, therefore it is true.

This is actually what happens you know

Oh, and
If you took time lapse photography over the month, you might set it at 7.25 days or something, then the planet would actually have the same bit facing the moon all the time.
My only complaint is that the orbit of the moon seems to be at 90 degrees to the plane of orbit of the sun, as the sun must be directly behind the observer for the planet to be constantly lit up. Which is absurd.
