Is the moon brighter than Venus?
When you see it up in the sky, yes! Venus is the second brightest object in the night sky. Our moon is first.
When the sky is totally dark an you cannot see the moon?
Technically speaking, when you cannot see the moon, it is a new moon. But my thinking is that if you can't see the moon, how can it be new? So my definition of a new moon is when you can see a smile in the sky because the moon is happy that it has just been born, but when you see a frown in the sky, the moon is sad because it is dying. Then you get the scientific "new moon."
What is the moon phase when you can see the entire moon on the sky at night?

What are facts about first quarter moons?
The First Quarter Moon is the phase of the Moon which is most easily spotted by the casual observer. You see the Moon in this phase in the south as the Sun sets. If the sky is clear at sunset, you can't miss the first quarter Moon. In this phase, the Moon sets at midnight. In a crystal clear sky, you can even see the first quarter Moon a few hours before sunset in the southeast.the cicle is new moon, waxing crescent,first quarter, waxing gibbous, full moon, waning gibbous, last quarter, waning cresent,then new moon again and so on so a first quarter moon is when you can't seehalf the moon.
