The crust on the side of the moon facing earth is what than on the other side?
Thicker. The side of the moon facing Earth has a thicker crust compared to the side facing away, known as the lunar farside. This difference is due to the asymmetry in the thickness of the Moon's crust caused by the cooling of the lunar magma ocean.
Why is the moon's crust thinner on one side than the other?
The pull of Earth's gravity during the moon's formation caused the crust on the far side of the moon to become thicker than the crust on the near side. On the near side, the lunar crust is about 60 km thick. On the far side, the lunar crust is up to 100 km thick.
Where is the moon located in relation to Earth and the Sun when you see a full Moon?

Why can't you see the other half of the moon?
The Moon orbits the Earth, while the Earth is orbiting the Sun. Because the Moon is moving, we see it in different positions relative to the Sun; we call this the "phases of the Moon". Only when the Moon is on the opposite side of the Earth from the Sun will we see a "full" moon.
Does the reflective surface of the moon get hot?
The illuminated side of the moon is in excess of 250 degrees hotter than the other side. Only part of the moon faces the sun, which is the part I described as illuminated. The sun heats up the side that faces it and the moon does not have the protection of an Earth-like atmosphere.
What do you mean by the dark side of the moon?
That refers to the side that can't be seen from Earth. The Moon has a bound rotation, meaning that we always see the the same side (more or less; but read about "libration" for more details). The "dark side of the Moon" is not really darker than the other side; it simply refers to the fact that we can't see it from Earth.That refers to the side that can't be seen from Earth.
