Reply to comment by ronnyhugo in what would be different if we had two moons by Any_Palpitation_3110

Because it never receives any reflected light from Earth, thus from our perpsective it is the 'dark side'.

All that shiny moon stuff is 99.9999% from the sun. Otherwise we'd never have any dark bits of the moon towards us, would we? :P Its not like the moon actually gets carved in half when half of it is dark, its still there, it just doesn't get sunlight! :P
