Nyt kun on taas toivottavasti riittämiin selvitelty väärinymmärrystä Kuun "pimeästä puolesta", otan väittääkseni, että Roger Waters ei runokuvassaan ehkä puhunutkaan Kuun etäpuolesta, vaan siitä pimeästä osasta, joka "näkyy" aina puolikuun aikaan. Aivomme täydentää puolikkaan ympyräksi, ja "näemme" pimeällä alueella sen mitä mielemme kulloinkin assosioi sinne. "And if your head explodes with dark forebodings too, I'll see you on the dark side of the moon." Kertoja ei tee treffejä ystävän kanssa Kuun etäpuolelle, vaan näkee hänet omaa (vielä) valoisaa puolikastaan täydentävänä salatumpana kumppanina, toinen toistaan täydentävänä parina. Rajahan liukuu koko ajan.

Happy Space Science Saturday!
As part of NASA’s Artemis program, Artemis II recently completed its historic crewed lunar flyby, the first since the Apollo era, sending astronauts around the Moon and back to Earth. This mission is testing critical systems needed for future lunar landings, including Artemis III.

Let's ask to the #hivemind of the #fediverse... I read that #Artemis2 astronauts are the first people looking at the #darksideofthemoon. Is it because #Apollo missions didn't have windows allowing to look down?

Question from earth: "What do you see on the dark side of the moon, Artemis II?"

Answer: "Um..."

Visible on the dark side is a huge pile of boxes, labeled "EPSTEIN FILES".

Artemis II Lunar Flyby - NASA

The first flyby images of the Moon captured by NASA’s Artemis II astronauts during their historic test flight reveal regions no human has ever seen before—including a rare in-space solar eclipse. Released Tuesday, April 7, 2026, the photos were taken on April 6 during the crew’s seven‑hour pass over the lunar far side, marking humanity’s return to the Moon’s vicinity.
