∙ 6y agoWe have seen the far side from lunar orbit many times, but there have been no landing expeditions there so far. Radio communications are cut off for people when the moon is between them and earth. So landing there would be particularly hazardous. Earth-based equipment would not be able to monitor astronaut health/activity, equipment status or other telemetry.
Note. The far side is not the dark side. It is more accurate to refer to it as the far side of the moon; it is no more dark than the face of the moon that is visible from earth.

∙ 11y ago4.1 The INSAT series
INSAT (Indian National Satellite System) is a series of multipurpose geostationary satellites launched by ISRO to satisfy the telecommunications, broadcasting, meteorology and search-and-rescue needs of India. Commissioned in 1983, INSAT is the largest domestic communication system in the Asia-Pacific Region. It is a joint venture of the Department of Space, Department of Telecommunications, India Meteorological Department, All India Radio and Doordarshan. The overall coordination and management of INSAT system rests with the Secretary-level INSAT Coordination Committee.
4.2 The IRS series
Main article: Indian Remote Sensing satellite
Indian Remote Sensing satellites (IRS) are a series of earth observation satellites, built, launched and maintained by ISRO. The IRS series provides remote sensing services to the country. The Indian Remote Sensing Satellite system is the largest constellation of remote sensing satellites for civilian use in operation today in the world. All the satellites are placed in polar sun-synchronous orbit and provide data in a variety of spatial, spectral and temporal resolutions to enable several programs to be undertaken relevant to national development. The initial versions are composed of the 1 (A,B,C,D) nomenclature. The later versions are named based on their area of application including OceanSat, CartoSat, ResourceSat.
4.3 Other satellites
ISRO has also launched a set of experimental geostationary satellites known as the GSAT series. Kalpana-1, ISRO's first dedicated meteorological satellite,[21] was launched by the Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle on 12 September 2002.[22] The satellite was originally known as MetSat-1.[23] In February 2003 it was renamed to Kalpana-1 by the then Indian Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee in memory of Kalpana Chawla -- a NASA astronaut of Indian origin who perished in Space Shuttle Columbia.

No human has ever landed on the "far side" of the Moon.
The Moon has days and nights; each lasts about 14 days. To answer your question specifically, all the Apollo astronauts landed on the "day" side of the Moon.
