The term "dark side of the moon" is a reference to an area on the moon’s surface where the sun is not shining during the change of the lunar phases and is therefore seen as a dark area on the moon's surface.  The dark side of the moon is the side that faces away from the sun at any given time.

"Dark Side of the Moon" is also a common name for the far side of the Moon.
