If you are on the moon at the time of "New Moon", and you are facing the earth, you see a "Full Earth". If you stay up there a while, and call your partner on earth every day, and you describe to each other what you're seeing, you'll notice something very interesting: The part of the moon that HE sees, plus the part of the earth that YOU see, always adds up to a complete circle of illumination. Each of you sees the part of the circle that the other one is missing.

To a person on the moon, Earth would also appear to be halfway illuminated, with the half that is facing the sun appearing bright and the other half in shadow. This is because the sun's light is only illuminating half of Earth which is also half-facing the moon.
