in about 1 month

The moon does not have an atmosphere like the Earth

Position Phases are
caused by its position relative to Earth and Sun

Far Side of the Moon From Earth, you can
only see one side of the Moon. A long time ago the Earth's gravity slowed the Moon's spin. The Moon now rotates once as it orbits the Earth, so that the same side (the same half of a sphere) always faces the Earth. So we on Earth see the near side, and the far side always faces away from us.

Waxing To gradually increase in size (to
grow)

New Moon No Moon?
The lighted side of the Moon faces away from the Earth. This means that the Sun, Earth, and Moon are almost in a straight line with the Moon in between the Sun and the Earth. The Moon that we see looks very dark.
SUN
![Page 16: The Moon](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070421/5681616c550346895dd0fb81/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Waxing Crescent
SUN
This moon can be seen after the New Moon, but before the First Quarter. The crescent will grow larger and larger every day until the Moon looks like the first Quarter Moon.
Remember: waxing means increasing or growing larger!
![Page 17: The Moon](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070421/5681616c550346895dd0fb81/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
First Quarter
SUN
The right half of the Moon appears lighted and the left side appears dark. During the time between the New Moon and the First Quarter, the part of the moon that appears lighted gets larger and larger every day, and will continue to grow until the Full Moon!
![Page 18: The Moon](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070421/5681616c550346895dd0fb81/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Waxing Gibbous
SUN
After the First Quarter but before the Full Moon.
The amount of the moon that we can see will grow larger and larger every day.
![Page 19: The Moon](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070421/5681616c550346895dd0fb81/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Full Moon
SUN
The lighted side of the moon faces the Earth. This means that the Earth, Sun, and moon are nearly in a straight line, with the Earth in the middle. The moon that we see is very bright from the sunlight reflecting off it.
![Page 20: The Moon](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070421/5681616c550346895dd0fb81/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Waning Gibbous
SUN
After the Full Moon but before the Last Quarter.
The amount of the moon that we can see will grow smaller and smaller each day.
Waning means decreasing or growing SMALLER.
![Page 21: The Moon](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070421/5681616c550346895dd0fb81/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Last Quarter
SUN
Also called Third Quarter Moon. The left half of the moon appears
lighted, and the right side of the moon appears dark. During the time between the Full Moon and the Last Quarter Moon, the part of the moon that appears lighted gets smaller and smaller every day.
It will continue to shrink until the New Moon.
![Page 22: The Moon](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070421/5681616c550346895dd0fb81/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Waning Crescent
SUN
Can be seen after the Last Quarter Moon and before the New Moon.
The crescent will grow smaller and smaller every day, until the moon looks like the New Moon.
![Page 23: The Moon](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070421/5681616c550346895dd0fb81/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Then the cycle starts over again! New Moon Waxing Crescent First Quarter Waxing Gibbous Full Moon Waning Gibbous Last Quarter Waxing Crescent
