What is the phase of the moon when the sunset is near the horizon?
No, there are no moon near Venus. No moons orbit Venus. The nearest moon to Venus is Earth's moon. :)
You will find stars in every direction - both near the Moon, and in other directions. They are not really "near" the Moon; they just happen to be in the same direction.

Full Moon.
you see the near side of the moon.
There are two separate things that need to be addressed. One is the surface area of the Moon. The other is the surface area of the NEAR SIDE of the Moon. As a sphere in space, the Moon is always 50% illuminated, except during lunar eclipses. The phases of the Moon measure what percentage of the NEAR SIDE of the Moon is illuminated. At the new moon, none of the near side is lit up; at the full moon, 100% of the near side is illuminated.
Yes, Venus is often visible near the moon in the night sky. Venus is one of the brightest objects in the sky after the Sun and the Moon, making it easily recognizable even when near the Moon.
The phenomenon is known as the "moon illusion." It is when the moon appears larger when it is near the horizon compared to when it is higher in the sky.
Yes.
