A day. The moon changes its appearance daily. "New moon" can be said to be the first 24 hours after the first sighting. The next new moon is on Saturday, 25 April 2009. The moon is barely visible at new moon being a very thin crescent. It can be seen for about 8-14 hours depending on latitude and season until it sets. The best view is just before sunset. The next 6 days are called "first quarter". See the related link for up-to-date actual moon data.
