This was Arther C. Clark's pet peeve - there is no dark side of the moon. There is a near and a far side of the moon.

"But on the nightside, in the cold lunar dark, electrons accumulate and voltages can climb to hundreds or thousands of volts."

Send up a giant capacitor, collect it and bring it back.

I recently shared a flight to DFW with a researcher who is looking for ways to deal with this phenomenon in future lunar habitats. It made for a short flight, and I think he was surprised that I actually understood what he was talking about. (My father spent 30 years as a NASA engineer).
