You can only see a full moon at night because its position in the sky is opposite to the sun. At most other phases of the moon, it can be seen during the daytime as well. A new moon cannot be seen during daytime because it is in the same part of the sky as the sun but on rare occasions, the new moon may pass in front of the sun. This is called a solar eclipse.
