Oh, isn't that just a marvelous sight? During a full moon, the sun is on the opposite side of the moon, bathing its entire surface in light. This is why we can see the whole side of the moon glowing so beautifully in the night sky. Just imagine the magic and wonder of our universe coming together to create such a stunning scene for us to admire.
