The white dots, which so many inexperienced people have called photo flaws, are real. My proof is the shadow. Look at the shadow covering them. Moon shadows would not affect photo flaws, however if they were structures on the moon, it would logical. To argue that photo flaws would disappear in the shadows is ridiculous so I will not acknowledge such foolishness.
Shadows can't point in two directions at once when there is a single source of light (sun). Look closely.
This IS a photo anomaly, nothing more imo.
Of course, there will be those who wish to analise it to death to try and make something more of it.
Have fun believers.

Yes i'll explain this a little better because you totally failed.
There is such thing as darkside of the Moon, this occurs during a full Moon.
The far side of the Moon is PERMANENTLY turned away from the Earth regardless of wether your in Australia or the U.S. The whole Moon is not, and never will be, visible from Earth.

Inexperienced photo shoppers.
Those pictures prove nothing else.
And they definitely don't prove any "alien building" is on the moon.

There is actually ALWAYS a "dark side" of the moon, whether the Moon appears to be full or not. However, that dark side is constantly moving -- sometimes it points away from Earth (during a Full Moon), sometime it points towards Earth (During a New Moon), sometimes half of it points toward Earth (during a "Half Moon"), and everything in between.
Like you said, there is a far side and a near side, with the far side always facing away from Earth. I understand what you are trying to say about the "dark side", but the point is here is no real dark side that's always dark. During the Moon's 28-day revolution cycle, virtually every part of the Moon will get equal amounts of sunlight and darkness (I say 'virtually' because there are lowlands and craters at the poles that are in perpetual darkness, and some highlands at the poles that are in almost constant sunlight).
If you stayed in one spot virtually anywhere on the Moon, you would experience cycles of days and nights -- but each of those daytimes and nighttimes would last about 14 Earth-days.

Haven't look through all the posts just the first few so to CORRECT your title the Moon DOESN'T have a dark side, it's the far side. Also the first picture in your post looks like the near side!
Why do you guys who are so DESPERATE for something to be on the Moon, Mars etc get taken in by BS like this, I mean I would love to see some real evidence of alien life but the amount of people on here that get taken in by such cr4p like this thats all over the net is so funny ,the ironic thing is a SKEPTIC is more likely to find real evidence than the believers because dont they get taken in by the BS out there so would be most likely spot real evidence!

...Now, this was speculation. I do think the photo is real and that someone did some obvious Photoshopping to provide people who have an eye for this sort of thing an EASY TARGET. Essentially, this is a "straw manned" photo.
