The phases of the moon are periodic and repetitive. A new moon occurs when no moon is visible to an observer on Earth. During the first quarter, half of the side of the moon facing the Earth is visible. During a full moon the entire side of the moon is visible. During the last quarter the other half of the side of the moon facing Earth is visible. The U. S. Naval Observatory lists the following dates for phases of the Moon in the year 2008.
