Brainliesttt -describe the appearance of the moon and its position during each phase: new moon: waxing crescent moon: first quarter moon: gibbous moon: full moon: waning gibbous moon: third quarter moon: waning crescent moon:

New moon: we see darkness (aka nothing)

Waxing crescent moon: we see a sliver of light that indicates the crescent (during this time, the moon moves eastward away from the sun)

First quarter moon: when half the moon's face is illuminated.

Gibbous moon: when more than half the moon is illuminated, we call this a gibbous

Full moon: we see the whole round moon, lit up.

Waning gibbous moon: when the moon becomes thinner, but is still lit up for over half of its shape.

Third quarter moon: this is where the moon shows the other half of itself (that we didn't see in the 1st quarter) while the other half is dark.

Waning crescent moon: when the moon is a thin crescent, traveling down into the darkness of the full moon.

This process takes about a month (29.53 days).
