over 9000 for sure :)
Different phases of the moon appear at different times depending on when the month starts (and which phases appeared prior), however there are eight recognized phases the moon cycles through within 25 days. They are: New, Waxing Crescent, First Quarter, Waxing Gibbous, Full, Waning Gibbous, Last Quarter, and Waning Crescent.
there are 8 phases of the moon: new moon, waxing cresent, first quarter, waxing gibbous, full moon, waning gibbous, last quarter, and waning cresent. then it goes back to mew moon and repeats itself over and over again.
17 times. isn't that a lot??
The waning crescent should begin roughly 14.7 days after First Quarter.
The moon has several different types of motions. It orbits around the Earth, completing one orbit in about 27.3 days. It also rotates on its axis, completing one rotation in the same amount of time, which is why we always see the same side of the moon. Additionally, the moon's orbit is slightly tilted, causing it to go through phases as it moves relative to the sun and Earth.
Waning gibbous lasts from Full Moon to Third Quarter, so it lasts about 7 days.
The New Moon, First Quarter, Full Moon, and Third Quarter are moments in time, with no duration. The Waxing and Waning Crescents, and the Waxing and Waning Gibbous phases, each last roughly a week.

Four main ones, and four transitional.new moon, waxing crescent, first quarter, waxing gibbous, full moon, waning gibbous, third quarter and waning crescent.
The waning gibbous moon is waning. not waxing, full, or new. It is just past full and illuminated generally from the left. This phase of the Moon is seen to rise a little while after sunset, a few days or so after Full Moon the waning gibbous Moon appears nearly full and might be mistaken for a full Moon. The Moon in this phase sets just shortly after sunrise and is generally seen by casual observers early in the morning. Gibbous moon is waning. Not waxing, full, or new.
There are two gibbous moons: The waxing gibbous moon and the waning gibbous moon. From New Moon to Waxing Gibbous, it is about 11 days; from New Moon to Waning Gibbous, it is about 18 or 19 days.

about 8 days

The moon's apparent shape becomes a waning crescent immediately, as soon as the moment of "Third Quarter" has passed.
