The amount of the moon's surface that is lit up by the sun varies depending on the moon's position in its orbit. During a full moon, the entire visible side of the moon is illuminated, while during a new moon, none of the visible side is lit up. This is because the amount of sunlight reaching the moon changes as it orbits the Earth.
