All sides of the moon are exposed to the sun as the moon circuits the Earth. Only one side faces the Earth. Very different motions. Take two balls and experiment with them. Let light shine on the system and then orbit one about the other, keeping one face pointed at the stationary one in the center. You will definitely see illumination over the course of the orbit.

We did that in 6th grade. The dark side is always the side opposite the sun.

Zeppelin - always reminds me of my uncle, a US Army Lt. during WW-I (by chance, no combat, but an observer of some things). Somewhere, he took a picture of one of the German Zeppelins, after the war. (And somewhere, I might still have that picture?)

Meanwhile, I have been reading about the Zeppelins:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Zeppelins

And one of the British aircraft that would shoot down Zeppelins, early in WW-I:

Both types of air -craft, being so vulnerable, yet men dared to fly.

There are different types of radiation. To my knowledge you cannot find a single source of concentrated material such as Plutonium in nature. Only when man has created it.

“There are different types of radiation. “

Such a revelation!! Pure Genius!!!

“To my knowledge you cannot find a single source of concentrated material such as Plutonium in nature. Only when man has created it.”

So there is no plutonium in any of the trillions and trillions of galaxies with billion and billions of stars. Wow!!! You are very knowledgeable!!! Having explored in depth the entire Universe.
