The Average Distance of the Moon from Earth, is 238,855 miles ( 384,400 km).
On average, the moon is about 384,000 km from the center of the Earth. more facts: the Moon's diameter is about 3500 km. the Moon orbits the Earth in 27.32 days.
Yes. That is because the Moon doesn't have any significant amount of atmosphere.
When we have a new moon is when the sunlight falls on the far side of the moon. This happens once a month.

For all practical purposesUranus is just as far from Earth's moon as it is from the Earth.
Far Side of the Moon - film - was created in 2003.
Absolutely! In fact, since there is no rayleigh scattering (the phenomenon that makes the sky blue here on Earth) because the Moon has no atmosphere, you can see the stars ALL the time - even when the Sun is up.Additionally, because there is no atmosphere, the stars appear brighter from the Moon than here on Earth. One of the major goals for a manned presence on the Moon will be to build lunar observatories. And because radio astronomy here on Earth is complicated by all the radio transmitters here, the PERFECT place for a radio telescope would be on the far side of the Moon. With several hundred miles of rock between the radio telescope and that horribly radio-noisy Earth, we'll be able to do radio-astronomy there far better than we ever can here on Earth.
A new moon.
The duration of Far Side of the Moon - film - is 1.75 hours.
No. The far side of the moon is usually partially illuminated by the sun and is only completely dark during the full moon. The far side of the moon is fully lit during the new moon phase. It is called the "dark" side of the moon because we never see it.
