The dark side of the moon doesn't refer to a place that is always dark, but rather the side that is not visible from Earth. Temperatures on the moon can vary greatly, ranging from about -280°F (-173°C) at night to over 260°F (127°C) during the day. The lack of atmosphere means that there is no natural way to trap heat, causing extreme temperature fluctuations.
Return to the Dark Side of the Moon was created in 2005.
The Dark Side of the Moon - film - was created in 1990.
The dark side of the moon refers to the side of the moon that is not visible from Earth due to synchronous rotation, not because it is always dark. Both sides of the moon receive sunlight, but we only see one side from Earth.
Yes, the other side of the moon is not always dark. It experiences day and night just like the side of the moon facing Earth. The term "dark side of the moon" refers to the side that is not visible from Earth, not to the side that is always in darkness.
The moon is spherical and is lit by the sun. Only the side facing the sun can be lit by the sun. The other side is dark. If you were to stand on the moon you would find that the light side of the moon is experiencing day while the dark side is experiencing night.
Temperature of the moon varies greatly since it had no atmosphere. At the equator on the side expose to the sun, the temperature can reach up to 120 oC At the very same equator on the dark side, the temperature is -200 oC, quite higher than average temperature of the surrounding space of -270 oC because the moon still have some heat from the core deep inside its' crust. If the earth had no atmosphere, the temperature would be the same as the moon.
The fail of the fail spells failure...........
Any place on the moon that's in direct sun (day side) has a temperature around +225 F. Any place on the moon that's not in direct sun (night side) has a temperature around -240 F. Of course, the light and dark areas of the moon keep changing throughout the month.
There is no life anywhere on the moon - light or dark side.
Nothing. There is no life on the moon, dark side or light side.
There is no dark side, the moon is similar in colours all over its surface.
