The line that separates the light and dark portions on Earth is called the terminator line. On the Moon, this line is known as the lunar terminator or dusk line. It is where sunlight transitions into darkness as a result of the rotation of the Earth and the Moon.
The terminator.
A spectroscope is a tool that separates a star's light into color bands and dark lines (absorption lines). These dark lines are produced due to the absorption of specific wavelengths of light by elements in the star's atmosphere. Spectroscopes are important in studying the composition and characteristics of stars.
The dividing line between light and shadow across the moon's disk is called the terminator. This is the line that separates the illuminated side of the moon from the dark side.

Earth does have a dark side. When you are on that dark side it is called night. Both Earth and the moon get their light from the sun. Since they are both spherical and there is only one sun in our solar system, the sun can only light up half of each object at a time.
the light areas of the moon are called the highlands. the dark areas are called maria.
It is dark in california baby
That is called a solar eclipse. The light of the sun is blocked by the moon, and the earth briefly is in the dark.
Yes, the dark side of the Earth facing away from the Sun is called the "night side" rather than a shadow. Shadow refers more to when an object blocks light, creating a darker area behind it.

The terminator is the line - on any planet - between light and dark.... but it is rarely a 'line' in the true sense here on Earth, it's more of a zone.
