Moon phases occur because the moon is at different places in relation to the earth and sun at different times. As for where the Earth, moon, and sun are during the moon phases, check out the chart below. The moon always looks different because of the different amount of sunlight the moon is reflecting at different times.

The holes on the moon are craters. Since the moon has no atmosphere, it preserves a record of almost all of the impacts that the surface of the moon has had, like asteroids or meteoroides hitting it, so we can see craters.

Shouldn't we get an eclipse every month? Why don't we? #huh

# data[].attributes.body
We don't get an eclipse every month because the orbital plane of the moon is not in an ecliptic plane all the time. The full or new moon occurs when the moon is not passing through the plane and the shadow won't strike Earth.

Why do we only see one side of the moon? #darkside

# data[].attributes.body
This is because the moon rotates about its spinning axis at the same rate the Moon orbits the Earth. Therefore, the same portion of the moon's sphere is always facing the Earth. For further explanation, click the link
