What is the phase of the moon when it's crescent shaped?

What is the eclipse of the moon?
An eclipseWhen the Moon's shadow hits the Earth, it blocks out the Sun and we have a solar eclipse. (since the sun appears to be 'eclipsed').When the Earth's shadow hits the Moon, the Moon goes dark and we have a lunar eclipse. (since the moon appears to be eclipsed).For either kind, whether it is a partial or total eclipse depends on how precise the alignment of the Sun, Moon and Earth are.Also, phases of moon are caused by changes in the relative position of the moon, Earth and the sun. The phase of the moon you see depends on how much of the sunlight side of the moon faces earth.
What is a simile of a crescent moon?
The moon was as cresent as a moon.......
What appearance does the sun have to an observer during a total solar eclipse?
An eclipse occurs when the Sun, Moon and Earth (in that order) are on a single line with each other.Thus the moon blocking the Sun's light. For an observer the Sun is not visible because the moon is in the way. But because the gravity of the moon bends the light of the sun a little bit back to Earth so it appears with a glowing ring around the dark circle created by the moon. This is known as a full eclipse.This eclipse will only be shown as a full eclipse in specific regions on Earth where the alignment comes out perfect, in other parts of the world there will also be an eclipse but it will be a partial eclipse, by which the moon is also blocking the sun but only partial much like a crescent moon looks like.Note: The phases of the moon happen in a parallel way, when the Sun, Earth and Moon (in that order) are aligned. But a dark moon happens far more frequent than a solar eclipse.
When was Moon of the Chaos Eclipse created?

What is the difference between a waning crescent and a eclipse?
A waning crecent is when the moon is just a sliver and is almost gone; an eclipse is when the sun covers the moon or the moon covers the sun depending on if it is solar or lunar eclipse

What are the names of the phases of the moon during a solar eclipse?

The shadow of the earth on the moon causes a crescent moon?
During a partial lunar eclipse (or during the early or late stages of a total lunar eclipse) this can happen. However, we normally see the "crescent moon" a few days before and after the New Moon, because the bulk of the Moon is still in the dark and only a narrow sliver is in the sunlight.
In what phase of the moon can a total eclipse occur?
Solar eclipse (total or otherwise): at new moon. Lunar eclipse (total or otherwise): at full moon. -- Immediately after a Solar eclipse you get a new crescent moon appearing in the sky. Obviously therefore the eclipse happens at the point when the side of the moon that faces us is in total shadow - indeed during the eclipse we are covered by that shadow. -- Immediately after a lunar eclipse, as soon as the moon moves out of the shadow, it is full.

What stage is the moon in when it is in the shape of a sliver?
Sometimes the dark part of the moon is illuminated by the reflection of sunlight off the Earth. It is called Earthshine. Check this site http://home.hiwaay.net/~krcool/Astro/moon/earthshine/
