Answer»

Answer:

The phases of the moon starting with the New Moon are:

New Moon.

Waxing Crescent.

First Quarter.

Waxing Gibbous.

Full.

Waning Gibbous.

Third Quarter.

Waning Crescent.

The Moon doesn't emit (give off) light itself, the 'moonlight' we SEE is actually the Sun's light REFLECTED off the LUNAR surface. So, as the Moon orbits the Earth, the Sun lights up different parts of it, making it SEEM as if the Moon is changing shape.
