One man is only capable of seeing one side of the moon at a time, and only astronauts have seen the side that faces away from Earth.
We are only seeing a portion of the illuminated area when the phase is not a Full Moon phase.
The same side of the moon always faces us, regardless of the phase. When the moon is full that side is fully illuminated by the sun as the moon is approximately on the opposite side of Earth relative to the sun.

Because the sun is only on the right side of the moon.
A half moon appears when only half of the moon's illuminated side is visible from Earth. This occurs when the moon is at a 90-degree angle relative to the Earth and the sun, known as the first quarter or third quarter moon.
