The Moon is there, but the side that's reflecting the Sun's light is facing away from Earth. As the Moon moves around Earth in its orbit, the light reflecting off the side of the Moon creates a sliver of shape. This is a crescent moon.
yes the moon is in the shape of a sphere
The term crescent moon refers to one of the phases of the moon. The Earth's shadow partly blocks the Sun's light from illuminating the face of the Moon at different times the month. The crescent Moon describes the sickle shape of light that is formed when most of the Moon is in shadow.
They have some information about the age and composition from the moon rocks they brought back. The number of craters and their shape also helps determine age and composition. They know the atmosphere, the total mass, the rotation speed and the distance from earth. All these things help in developing a theory on how the moon was formed. It is widely accepted that the Moon formed from an impact to the Earth, when it was still molten. Evidence of this is from extremely similar composition of the Earth and the Moon, and the fact that the Moon is slowly drifting away from us.
The general term for the visible lit part of the moon is "the phase of the moon." The visible lit portion can have a crescent shape, a gibbous shape or a "half-moon" (half circle) shape.
The moon attained its shape the same way other planets were formed. Gravity compresses the planet into a shape that most evenly distributes the gravitational force among the planet's mass.

a moon shape!
yes the moon is in the shape of a sphere
The moon is not changing it's shape!
The maria's on the moon were formed by meteors slamming into it.
The duration of Shape of the Moon is 1.82 hours.

The waves are formedwhen the moon's transferredlight has pull the waves with its own gravity which form high tides
