When the moon is waxing, the sunlit part we can seeis growing. During a waxing crescent, we can see only a small section on the right that is shaped like a crescent. You can remember which is waxing and which is waning because waxing rhymes with relaxing, and the first letter of relaxing is R, which starts the word right, the lit up side.CommentsYou have no permission to add comments.
The phase of the Moon just after a Full MoonThe word "waning" means decreasing in size (referring to the illuminated portion), and "gibbous" means that more than half of the surface is illuminated.The waning gibbous phase becomes the "last quarter" or "third quarter" when the illuminated portion is exactly 50%, leading to the "waning crescent" with less than 50% and eventually a New Moon (totally darkened, as the Moon is between the Earth and the Sun).---Phases of the Moon in sequence:New moon (0%)Waxing crescent moonFirst quarter moon (50%)Waxing gibbous moonFull moon (100%)Waning gibbous moonLast quarter moon (50%)Waning crescent moon

The various stages: * New moon - 0% visible* Waxing crescent - between new and first quarter* First quarter - 50% visible* Waxing gibbous - between first quarter and full* Full moon - 100% visible* Waning gibbous - between full and last quarter* Last quarter - 0% visible* Waning crescent - between last quarter and new* New - cycle repeats
