Russian scientist challenges Moon's dark side myth
Mikhail Gerasimov stated that the far side of the Moon is brighter than the visible side because it is composed of light-colored continental rocks known as "anorthosite." He explained that calling it "dark" is due to the difficulty in exploring it, not because it is less luminous. It remains permanently facing away from Earth due to tidal locking effects caused by Earth's gravity.
