what? there are stars

there is no stars in the area of the dark side of the moon

please explain further what you mean

Anyone else think the stars look like they are made in photoshop using special effects? This picture looks like a movie poster.

Its not a photograph of the moon me thinks.

Yes there is. Pink Floyd did it back in 1973. Great album then, great CD now.

Yes, Zorgon, there is a dark side of the moon and as a matter of fact it is facing us as we speak 5:55 PDT October 8, 2007. However the sun is setting and so is the dark face of the moon which is pointing towards us. But when the moon rises in the morning it will be the dark face also pointed towards us and also, apparently, right next to the sun. Thats why its dark.

The lights go on later this week, technically, October 10. But you won't be able to see them until the 12th.

Yes, Virginia, there is a dark side of the moon. And it will be there in the morning for everyone to see. That is if the sun wasn't so bright.

Hmmm dunno if I buy into that one... been out in the woods on many a moonlit night and can see just dandy... I bet I would need sunglasses in Earth shine

I need sleep....
