My armchair, uneducated guess about the shadow: As the cubesat approaches, the entire cloud seems to be fully lit, as though the Sun is at the cubesat's back-ish side. As it passes by and looks back, what I suspect we're seeing is the illumination from the Sun plus the reflected glow from Didymos onto Dimorphus; however, the reflected light gets occluded partially and causes the dark zone (shadow). But I would think there's a chance for there to continue being dust kicked out for awhile after impact, just on account of "ringing". (eg: how earthquakes/volcanic eruptions reflect around inside of Earth).
