The crescent moon is a phase in the lunar cycle and looks like only a sliver of the moon is lit up around one edge. This happens as the Earth is moving between the sun and the moon blocking almost all of the light that shines on the moon. The crescent shape happens once just prior to a new moon and once just after a new moon.
