The visible surface of the moon is divided into lighter and darker areas. The darker areas are called "Maria," which is the plural of the Latin word for "sea" (mare). These areas are vast lunar plains, and aren't literally seas, as they exist on earth.
Why do scientists believe there might be water on the Moon?
Earthshine occurs during the waxing crescent and waning crescent phases of the moon when a small portion of sunlight reflects off the Earth and illuminates the darker portion of the moon's surface.
The light areas on the moon are called highlands or terrae. These regions are characterized by rugged terrain and are typically brighter in color compared to the darker regions known as maria.
The answer depends on where you live and how much light pollution there is. In areas with few artificial lights (street lights, house lights) then if the moon's not visible then it will be dark, if the moon AND the stars arent visible (like due to clouds) then it will be darker, still. In cities, clouds usually reflect the light from street lights back down to the earth so depending on how much your city/town is lit up, it might actually be brighter on a cloudy night!
To patch a hole in a moon bounce inflatable, first clean and dry the area around the hole. Apply a vinyl repair patch over the hole following the manufacturer's instructions. Press firmly and ensure the patch adheres completely to seal the hole. Allow time for the patch to set before inflating the moon bounce again.
I called wanning.
You can see the moon when it is not full. The sun lights up part of the moon, but if you look carefully when the moon is not full, you can see the darker parts. This is easier when only a small part of the moon appears to be lit, as a brighter moon glares out the darker part making it harder to see.

Millions of shooting stars and comets have smashed away parts of the moon causing it to look darker in places.
