The moon keeps the same side facing Earth all the time, so we only see this one side of it. As the moon travels around the Eartg, we see a varying amount of this side each day. These different amounts, or stages, are called the phases of the moon.
• when the moon is seen as a crescent. Only a sliver of the side facing earth is sunlit.
• As the moon moves round the earth, it appears half-lit and then finally fully lit (the full moon). At this stage the whole of the side facing earth in sunlit
• it takes 29.5 days for the moon to move through all its phases from New, through,full, and back to new again.
