A "Maria", which is translated into "sea".
When the moon appears completely dark it is called a new moon.
It is called the umbra just like the dark part of the shawdow. Hope I helped!!
The dark spots on the moon are called lunar maria, which are large plains formed by ancient volcanic activity. The lighter areas are called highlands, which are rugged and densely cratered regions of the moon's surface.
It is false.
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".

Dark maira of seas
When there is no visibile moon it is called 'New Moon'.
The moon is both cold and hot. In places where the sun shines on the surface , it can get to over 220 degrees. On the dark side of the moon or in the places that are in shadows, it can get to - 220 degrees or colder! The moon's lack of atmosphere is what causes these great variations in temperature. Without air, the heat from the sun does not get distributed and averaged out like on Earth.

When the side of the moon facing Earth is dark and not visible, it is called the "new moon" phase. During this phase, the sunlit side of the moon is facing away from Earth, making it appear dark from our perspective.
It's not. The moon is always half light and half dark, but it's not always the same places. -- Take a soccer ball and a flashlight into a dark room. -- Turn on the flashlight, and point it at the soccer ball. -- Half of the ball is lit up, and the other half is dark. -- No matter how you turn the ball, no matter how quickly you move or which way you bend, no matter how you manipulate the flashlight, no matter how much you wiggle and dance ... 50% of the surface of the ball is lit up, and the remaining 50% of its surface is dark. -- 50% of the Earth is lit up, and the remaining 50% of it is dark. The light and dark places keep changing, but the Earth is always half light and half dark. -- 50% of the Moon is lit up, and the remaining 50% of it is dark. The light and dark places keep changing, but the Moon is always half light and half dark.
