- sneak 7mo agoIt’s approximately the dark side when the moon is full, which happened two days ago.

- dust42 7mo ago> It’s approximately the dark side when the moon is full, which happened two days ago. Who downvotes that? It is true. Edit: maybe you can illuminate why you downvote?
- y1n0 7mo agoI'm sure it's the flat-mooners downvoting.
- notorandit 7mo agoThe moon IS flat! Just like the Sun and the Earth.
- WorkerBee28474 7mo agoWell, the Moon, Sun, and Earth are all flatter than most surfaces in my house, and I call those surfaces flat, so yeah...
- raverbashing 7mo agoYes and (IIRC) they don't want to flyby while at full moon on the far side as to have some shadows to help differentiate the terrain
- waynecochran 7mo agoIt is this week. Which is interesting because the photo in the clip is the familiar near side -- I recognize the bunny.
- bombcar 7mo agoOne is the domain of humanoid cows, the other is the domain of absent fathers.
- technothrasher 7mo agoThe phrase never meant dark as in "unlit". It has always meant dark as in "occult".
- encom 7mo agoThere is no dark side of the moon really Matter of fact, it's all dark *heartbeats*
- classic959 6mo agoDepends what you mean by Dark side! In traditional definitions, Far side = Dark side If, when you say Dark side, you mean the side not receiving sunlight, then you're using a less informed, though more literal, definition of 'dark'.
- notorandit 6mo agoFar side from Earth can be not dark. Far side from Sun is always. The point is that we are all Earthlings, so the former applies.
