Detailed explanation-1: -It is the opposite half as illuminated in the first quarter moon. Waning Crescent: In the Northern Hemisphere, we see the waning crescent phase as a thin crescent of light on the left. The Moon displays these eight phases one after the other as it moves through its cycle each month.
Detailed explanation-2: -The first quarter moon looks like a semi-circle. It is also one-quarter of its way through the monthly phases. The fourth phase of the moon is the waxing gibbous. The waxing gibbous is when more than half of the moon is lit.
Detailed explanation-3: -At new moon, the Moon is lined up between the Earth and the Sun. We see the side of the Moon that is not being lit by the Sun (in other words, we see no Moon at all, because the brightness of the Sun outshines the dim Moon!)
