The moon's phases are determined by the relative positions of the Earth, moon, and sun. As the moon orbits the Earth, the amount of the moon's illuminated surface visible from the Earth changes. This change in the moon's appearance is known as the moon's phase.
The most common phases are the new moon, waxing crescent, first quarter, waxing gibbous, full moon, waning gibbous, third quarter, and waning crescent.
