Dark Side of the Moon
The dark side of the moon does not exist.
Repeat.
The dark side of the moon does not exist.
There is not one side of the moon that is always dark. There is one side of the moon that we never see from the earth, but it gets as much light as the side we see. When the moon is dark to us, except during eclipses, the moon is light on the “dark side.”
See? Here’s the dark side being…not so dark.

It does not exist, so said the lady at the Griffith Observatory. She worked there, and had a gigantic mobile which showed how it works and everything, so I’ll take her word for it, especially since I’m not so great at the 3D abstracts.
O, I found a boyfriend at the observatory.
He’s really smart and knows all kinds of things. Perhaps he’ll be able to explain this whole moon business so that I finally get it straight.

Last I heard and read NASA still considered all pictures and images from the ‘Dark side of the moon’ to be classified
So how did you get one? And how do we know this is actually the ‘Dark side of the moon’?
