EARTH
When the moon is on the same side of the earth that the sun is its called a new moon and isn't visable because the sun only shines on the side facing away from the earth. When the moon is on the same side of the earth that the sun is its called a new moon and isn't visable because the sun only shines on the side facing away from the earth. It is typically in its "new" phase. While other phases partially or fully reflect sunlight, the new moon is situated between the Earth and the Sun. Thus, the sunlit area of the Moon is facing completely away from the Earth. One other circumstance where the moon cannot be seen is during a lunar eclipse. During a full moon, the moon is usually illuminated across the entire surface visible from Earth. However, the Earth is situated between the Moon and the Sun-when all three are aligned, the Earth casts a shadow upon the Moon. It takes about one and a half hours for the Moon to be completely obscured during a total eclipse.
The phases of the moon are due to the reflection of sunlight.
The moon is called a new moon when it is not visible on Earth due to its position in relation to the Sun.

The Earth has had far more asteroid and meteorite impacts than the moon. Impact craters on Earth however are eroded by the atmosphere and water and also filled in by water and sediment. Since the moon has next to no atmosphere craters tend not to erode so they will always be visable.
