The moon does not circle the earth in a perfect circle, so the distance from the earth to the moon varies. The average distance is about 235,000 miles. It can be slightly less--say 220,000 miles when it is at it's closest (called the perigee) and slightly more--say 250.000 miles at the farthest (called the apogee).
Hope this helps.
For all practical purposesUranus is just as far from Earth's moon as it is from the Earth.

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.
