I know, I'm probably being dumb but how is there a shadow on the moon when it and the sun are in the sky?.. https://video.nostr.build/fe07cb7781984794c1ac876d6dcb3613fb3869d2ab76e4e6c9708af4db1a485e.mp4
In terms of sunlight, half of the Moon is always in shadow. Just like half of the Earth is.

Yes, the side not facing the sun. Which lead to ask the question in the first place
The only time you wouldn't see a substantial portion of the Moon's dark side is when the Moon is positioned nearly opposite the Sun from your position. Thus the briefness of full Moons.
