Which stage of the moon receives sunlight away from the moon?
Our moon is always 100 per cent lit from the Sun on one side (the moon's daylight) but not lit on the opposite side (the moon's night time) The side of the moon that is in sunlight is not always pointing toward us here on Earth, though.For instance, for the small amount of time that the moon is 'dark', its "night time" is pointing directly toward Earth, and its "day time" is pointed directly away from Earth.In between the dark moon and the 'full' moon described above, we see the various 'phases' of the moon.
Why cant you see a new moon?

The moon can be seen in both daylight and the night sky, which depends on the phase of the moon. The moon appears to be brighter and glow in darkness because the level of light in the sky is less than of the moon. One common misconception about the moon is that it produces it's own light - scientists know this is true since it reflects different amounts of sunlight as it orbits the Earth (this is also why the moon appears to "change shape").
