Answer:
The eight Moon phases:
New: We cannot see the Moon when it is a new moon.
Waxing Crescent: In the Northern Hemisphere, we see the waxing crescent phase as a thin crescent of light on the right.
First Quarter: We see the first quarter phase as a half moon.
Waxing Gibbous: The waxing gibbous phase is between a half moon and full moon. Waxing means it is getting bigger.
Full: We can see the Moon completely illuminated during full moons.
Waning Gibbous: The waning gibbous phase is between a half moon and full moon. Waning means it is getting smaller.
Third Quarter: We see the third quarter moon as a half moon, too. It is the opposite half as illuminated in the first quarter moon.
Waning Crescent: In the Northern Hemisphere, we see the waning crescent phase as a thin crescent of light on the left.
