Original Note:
You can see the shaded part of the ball because it's lit by ambient light. There's no ambient light in space to illuminate the dark side of the moon. In space, there is only direct sunlight from the nearest star. https://wtamu.edu/~cbaird/sq/2013/02/16/what-would-space-ships-actually-look-like-in-space/#:~:text=On%20earth%2C%20we%20also%20have,much%20like%20the%20crescent%20moon.
