It's the same reason you can only see one side of your head when you look in a mirror. The astronauts would need a mirror to see round the back.
No, there have been no astronauts landing or walking on the far side of the moon. None have landed in darkness there, either. It is considered too dangerous. This is because it is not possible for communication signals to reach the earth from the far side. Also, the terrain is very rough, making finding a landing site difficult in the dark. The landings must take place on the side of the moon facing earth, and in the light.Note: There is no "dark side of the moon" in reality. All sides of the moon get direct sunlight as the moon circles the earth. There is, however, only one side that faces earth, and it is the only side we see from here. That gives the moon a "back side" rather than a dark side.
No. Astronauts have orbited over the far side of the moon, but have never landed on it. The main reason is that they would be unable to communicate with Earth.
All the landings were in the lighted portion of the side of the moon facing Earth.
The "near" side of the moon is the side that always faces Earth. The "far" side of the moon can only be seen from space. The dark side of the moon is the title of a Pink Floyd album. There is no side of the moon that is always dark.
Astronauts ride rockets. The space shuttle has a huge liquid fuel booster, along side which two solid rocket motors are attached. This entire assembly blasts off, consuming almost all the fuel. Only a little bit is left in the shuttle itself for deorbit burns and attitude control. Cosmonauts--russian astronauts--boost into space in their Soyuz spacecraft, which is attached to the top of a big rocket. Chinese astronauts are called "taikonauts," which is probably a better word than either astronaut or cosmonaut. Taikonaut could be translated "space sailor," whereas "astro" means "star." Astronauts do not travel between the stars, yet.
Because space does not stop light from traveling. The earth has light sources on it that help it be seen on the dark side and on the light side it reflects a massive amount of light from the sun. The moon reflects light from the sun. The majority of what astronauts see locally is a reflection of the suns energy.

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.

They make sure astronauts can move from side to side and front to back and to make sure astronauts can be able to move outside the space shuttle
They might think about Earth boiling when they're suits rupture on the DARK side of the moon because it can get to below zero there. If they think about it when they're on the BRIGHT side then i dont know. Please DISCUSS this with me and other people.They will die
No. The stars are much farther away than any spacecraft we have sent, manned or unmanned. The farthest any astronauts have been from Earth is around the far side of the moon, the closest object in space to Earth. Even the closest stars (other than the sun) are millions of times farther away.
Man has always landed on the bright side of the moon, or the side facing earth. If he tried to land on the dark side he would not be able to speak to earth.

No, during the Apollo missions radio contact was cut off when astronauts orbited behind the Moon.
Only the ones that went around the moon actually have seen it. No one else can see it because the same face is shown to the Earth all the time.
