I understand that moon is tidally locked to the earth and we never see the other side (side facing away from earth). I suppose that’s called far side, but is it also the dark side? Also is there any overlap between dark side and the lunar poles?
The “dark” side is not actually dark. It gets just as much daylight as the rest of it, maybe more actually. Because when it’s between earth and sun the far side is totally lit up.
