A true new moon is when the sun is directly behind the moon. Astronomers call that a "solar eclipse". However, those don't happen very often because the orbital plains of the earth, moon and sun have to line up perfectly for that to happen. A more common new moon puts the moon so near the sun that the light from the sun block out any view of the moon we may have from earth. However, astronomers can still see a new moon with a telescope.
During a solar eclipse, the moon is totally dark. We can't see any of its features, but we can see the Solar Corona during a solar eclipse. When there's a new moon, the earth looks full from the moon, meaning that earthshine lights up the moon enough to give us rather good details about the lunar surface that get washed out during a full moon.
