third quarter I barely learned that in school
A half moonA half moon
'Waning' means getting smaller. But the moon is not getting smaller during that half of its cycle. What's waning is the amount of the moon's illuminated half that we're able to see.
If it is getting smaller it is waning.
We see more of the moon lit when it is a gibbous moon than when it is a crescent moon, so it does seem bigger. Save
When that happens it is called '' phases '' of the moon . Every day the phase can change . For example , the '' new moon '' , is when there is no moon . And '' full moon is like a white circle in the sky .
Waning, or waning gibbous.
It means that the part of the moon illuminated by the sun, that we can see here on earth, is getting smaller. Half the time the moon is waxing and half the time it is waning. A full cycle takes about 28 earth days, the time it takes the moon to orbit the earth once.
Crazy
Third Quarter is when the moon is half and is getting smaller.
it is all GOD'S MIRACLE
The crescent is a design that typically will resemble a half moon. Some people actually call the moon a crescent.
This is either a "First Quarter" or a "Third Quarter" Moon.
