Why is there a light and dark side on the moon?
The moon is spherical and is lit by the sun. Only the side facing the sun can be lit by the sun. The other side is dark. If you were to stand on the moon you would find that the light side of the moon is experiencing day while the dark side is experiencing night.
Why is there a near side and a 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"
Could you see earth if you were standing on the dark side of the moon?
If you look down, you will see the surface of the moon. If you look up, you will be able to see other celestial bodies in the sky, such as Earth, stars, other planets, etc., as long as they are not currently below the horizon of the moon. However, since the moon keeps the same face toward the Earth, if you are not on the side facing Earth, you will not see the Earth at all.
why is one side of the moon called "the dark side of the moon "?
It is called the dark side of the moon because it never faces the earth, this is caused by the fact that the moon's rotation is the same number of days as it's revolution around the earth. Even though it is called the dark side of the moon it still is as bright as the front side. __________________________ There is no "dark side of the Moon"; the entire Moon has a day-night cycle of 29 days. The Moon always has the "Man in the Moon" face turned toward the Earth, and the other, hidden side is the "far side of the Moon".
Does the sun hit the dark side of the moon?
The sun shines on all sides of the moon- at different times. If you mean does the sun shine on the farside of the moon- away from the earth- yes. When we have a new moon (dark) the sun is shining on the other side. However, when the sun is shining, it is not the darkside- it is light at that moment.
