Moon Watching: It's just a Phase

Are you a "lunatic", like Paul? Do you love watching the Earth's
companion, our moon, Luna? Then maybe, you are! Even though we
are all very familiar with the cratered face of the moon, it's
always a joy to observe this celestial body a bit closer. Look
for certain spots, find formations or signs of its strange
history and develop sort of a geographical understanding of the
only place outside of Earth, humans have set foot on.  And
there is the Dark Side of the Moon. The one we humans never see.
What lies there, hidden from Earth, always looking out into the
emptiness of space?
