The shadow of the Earth on the moon's surface is the reason that it takes different phases. When the Earth completely occludes the moon, it is a new moon, and when there is no shadow, it is a full moon.
When the moon is hidden by Earths shadow it's just on the other side of Earth. Making it night for the other side of the planet. Also or when it is hidden it just is called the New Moon. This part of moon changing happens every month.
"Umbra" means "shadow". When the Moon enters the Earth's shadow, we call that a "total lunar eclipse".

If the hemisphere that is 'lit' is facing away from the earth then it is a new moon

simple the earths seasons and aixs would go HAYWAL

When the side of the moon that faces Earth (the same side of the moon always faces Earth) is fully bathed in sunlight. The Moon experiences day and night cycles, but it takes 28 days for the moon to complete a day/night cycle because of the Moon's relatively slow spin (which is what keeps the same side of the Moon facing Earth).

There is no atmosphere on the Earth's moon.

the earths orbit because the earths orbit is the size of earth + the size of the moon

A lunar eclipse is where the Earth comes between the moon and sun, so that light to the moon is blocked out by Earths shadow. A solar eclipse is where the moon comes between the sun and Earth, blocking out sunlight to the Earth.
Just like the earth, the moon has a side that faces the sun (day) and a side that faces away from the sun (night). During a full moon, the side of the moon that faces the earth is lit by the sun and appears in daylight whereas the side of the moon that faces away from the earth is in shadow (night). During a new moon, the opposite is true. The side of the moon that faces the earth is in shadow (night) and the side that faces away from the earth is exposed to the sun (day).
