It's the earth shadow
It is a shodow from the earth.
A moon goes from new to full and back. During this process it starts with just a crescent, goes to the point of being half full, goes through the waxing gibbous phase, reaches full and then starts to get smaller, going through waning gibbous, half full and back down towards a crescent and then there is a new moon. The phases start on one side and go through to the other side. So the first crescent is on the right side, in early evening, just after sunset and the final crescent is on the left side, just before sunrise.
because their are phases were it would be full and some as a crescent
The correct sequence is New, Waxing Crescent, First Quarter, Waxing Gibbous, Full, Waning Gibbous, Third Quarter, Waning Crescent and then back to New
A crescent is 1/4 of a full moon while a Gibbous is 3/4 of a full moon.
