That phase is called new moon.
Moon may also be unobservable during lunar eclipse - it can only occur at full moon, because Moon has to be in line with Sun and Earth, behind Earth.
The new moon phase appears completely dark when observed from Earth because the side of the moon illuminated by the sun is facing away from us. This means that no sunlight is reaching the side of the moon that we can see, making it invisible to us.
Full moon-It's bright and fully round. New moon-It's there but invisible.
Only one. New moon is the phase where the sun is completely dark, and crescent is the phase where only a sliver (or crescent) is showing. The night after a new moon, part of the moon will be illuminated, and it will be a crescent.
The gibbous phases of the Moon occur when the visible face of the Moon is more than half illuminated, but not fully illuminated.
It appears completely dark during the new moon phase.

Yes, the moon is an essential component of Earth's celestial system and is present in the sky in some phase every day. However, the moon's visibility may vary depending on its phase, position, and time of the day.
