A waxing moon is a moon that gets more sunlight on it as the days go by. It is after we experience a new moon up to a full moon. A waning moon is after the full moon and will remain waning until we again experience a new moon

A crescent moon is any time less than half the moon is lit by the sun. A crescent moon is going from the third to first quarter. A gibbous moon is any time more than half the moon is lit by the sun.

The Moon gets its light from the Sun. In the same way that the Sun illuminates Earth, the Moon reflects the Sun's light, making it appear bright in our sky.

During the new moon, the moon is between the sun and the Earth, the side of the moon that is lit by the sun is facing away from our planet
