Excellent question. You can answer it in about 30 seconds, with a simple experiment
that you can do on your own.
-- Take a flashlight and a small ball (tennis, ping-pong, Baseball, etc.) into a room
that has no mirrors.
-- Turn on the flashlight and turn off the room lights.
-- Can you find a way to illuminate more than half of the ball with the flashlight ?
The moon is the ball (and the Earth is another one). The sun is the flashlight.
Each ball is half light and half dark at any time. As the ball spins, the area that's
light keeps changing, and the area that's dark keeps changing. But it's always
half and half.
There's no area of the moon that's always dark. But at any time you want to choose,
half of the moon is dark, and half of the Earth is also dark, because the sun is the
only flashlight around.
