There is no dark side of the moon really. Matter of fact, it's all dark.

There must be, I heard about it on a Pink Floyd album!

(grin)

Yep, I know, the proper term is "farside" since daylight on the moon shifts with the Moon's phase during the month i.e. both nearside and farside are in sunlight at different times of the month. That image was a screencapture from "Space:1999" and broadcast with that text. I guess the producers assumed most people would identify more with "darkside" rather than "farside".
