The waning phase of the moon is the period of time between full moon and new moon, where the size of the illuminated portion of the moon is decreasing.
How much time elapses between each of the four principal moon phases?

What is the distance between the earth and the moon in kl?
The average distance between the earth and moon is : 384,401 kilometres. Average meaning it changes from time to time
Why does it take the same time as the light from the sun to reach earth as it does for the moon?
It doesn't always do that. At some points in the Moon's orbit around the Earth, the distance from the Sun to the Moon and Earth is the same. At other points, the Moon is either closer or farther away from the Sun. But either way the distance between the Moon and Earth is so much smaller than the distance between the Sun and the Moon, that the difference in time becomes really, really tiny in comparison.
