During a new moon, the side of the moon that is illuminated by sunlight is facing away from Earth so that the dark side of the moon is facing Earth.
However, during a total solar eclipse (and with protective gear for your eyes) you can see the moon at the time of new moon. You will see the night time face of the moon without any detail at all.

When the sky is totally dark an you cannot see the moon?
Technically speaking, when you cannot see the moon, it is a new moon. But my thinking is that if you can't see the moon, how can it be new? So my definition of a new moon is when you can see a smile in the sky because the moon is happy that it has just been born, but when you see a frown in the sky, the moon is sad because it is dying. Then you get the scientific "new moon."
