NASA video shows the dark side of the moon

A new video from NASA is shedding light on the dark side of the moon.
The nearly two-minute animated video released on Feb.4 shows what the moon looks like on the side that's not visible from Earth.

Instead of the dark spots that make up the near side, the less-familiar "dark side" is covered in "craters of all sizes," according to a statement from NASA.

The animated video was created using mapping data collected from the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter satellite.
