the question does make sense. i assume your taking about the moon.yes. because the wanning gibous and waxing gibous (phases of the moon) would be backwards if the dark side was'nt facing the moon because of the way the sunlight lighting up the moon is angled.
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.
The moon is in its waning phase when less and less of the side facing the earth is lighted. This phase occurs after the full moon and leads up to the new moon when the side facing the earth is completely dark.
When the moon is not visible to observers on Earth, it is likely in its new moon phase. During this time, the side of the moon facing Earth is not illuminated by the sun, making it appear dark and invisible from our perspective.
A new moon occurs when the moon is positioned between the Earth and the Sun, with the side of the moon illuminated by the Sun facing away from Earth. This alignment causes the side of the moon we see from Earth to be in shadow, making it appear as if there is no visible moon in the night sky.
During the first and third quarters of the moon, you will see roughly 50% of the dark side and 50% of the lit side from Earth. This is because the sun is illuminating half of the moon's surface that is facing away from Earth.
We on earth always see the same face of the moon, but the "dark side" of the moon is not always dark. For example, in a lunar eclipse, the back side of the moon is receiving all of the sunlight, while the side facing us receives none.

The lighted half of the moon is always facing the sun. The entire dark half of the moon is facing earth at the time of "New Moon".
The side of the moon facing the earth is always partly lit except for a split second when the new moon takes place every 27-28 days. It is never the dark side except for that split second.
there is day(morning) when the earth is facing the sun and it is dark (night time) when the earth is facing the moon
The moon is always half dark. The half facing the sun is light, the other half is dark.However, during a lunar eclipse, the moon would be temporarily all dark since it is in the shadow of the earth.
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.
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.
There is no time when the complete northern hemisphere is dark. As the earth rotates there is always some part of the northern hemisphere facing the sun, so it is bright there, and there is always a part of it that is facing away from the sun, so it is dark there.
Because the sun is on the same side of the earth as you are.
it's always dark on one part of the moon at any time just as on earth , it is because half the surfaces are facing away from the sun cuz it wants to
