Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
Indeed, we cannot see the back side of the Moon. While revolving around the Earth, it always points the same face towards our planet. So that is the only face that we can see from our home. Moon does not have its axis to rotate. Instead, it revolves around the Earth, keeping the same face towards the Earth. We could see the dark side of the Moon only when a spacecraft was launched into a lunar orbit for the first time in 1959, allowing it to take pictures of the other side of the Moon.
