Best Answer

because the earth gets between the moon and the sun, and as the moon hasn't got any light of its own it relies on being illuminated by the sun to be visible to earth.

Why do you sometimes see the moon?

The moon can only be seen because it "borrows" the light from the sun. When the moon orbits the Earth the sunlit side of the moon changes - causing the moon to look like it changes shape. Many casual observers often believe that the moon's phases are caused by the Earth blocking the sun's light - this is not true, as the moon only passes through Earth's shadow occasionally.
