simple, we sent a satellite to orbit the moon and take pictures
Only 21 people have ever seen the far side of the Moon; they are all the Apollo astronauts. Since nobody has gone to the Moon in the last 45 years, most people NEVER see the far side of the Moon.
We only ever see the same side of the moon. The other side is called the far side or "the dark side of the moon"
When we have a new moon is when the sunlight falls on the far side of the moon. This happens once a month.
A few have observed the far side of the moon, but only 12 people have ever walked on the moon.
The far side of the moon is lit by the sun just as much as the near side. The true reason for landing on the near side instead of the far side has to do with communications, as we did not have comm satellites orbiting the moon during the Apollo missions. The near side was just much more practical than the far side.

The Moon spins at the same rate that it orbits the Earth; once every 27 days. Because of that, the same side of the Moon always faces the Earth. Before the Soviet Luna space probes which took photos of the far side of the Moon, no one had ever known what it looked like. People of India cannot see the far side of the Moon? The People of EARTH cannot see the far side of the Moon.

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.
This is an uneducated way of referring to the far side of the moon. But the far side isn't always dark.
