Just be patient, fellow, and wait a few days until the sun comes up—there is NO “dark side” to the moon any more than there is a “dark side” to the Earth. Our day is about 24 hours long, the moon’s “day” is about a month long. There is, however, a far side to the moon, which we can never see from earth because the moon is tidally locked with the earth and always presents the same side to us.
