What else can I help you with?
If someone in the northern hemisphere views a full moon what does the southern hemisphere sees?
Also a FULL MOON. However, its height in the sky will be different.
What phase of the moon at sunset is high in the southern sky?
The first quarter moon is high in the sky at sunset, but for it to be high in the SOUTHERN sky tells us that you are in the northern hemisphere. In the southern hemisphere, the Sun and Moon pass NORTH of the observer.
How does the moon appear differently in the southern hemisphere compared to the northern hemisphere?
In the southern hemisphere, the moon appears differently from the northern hemisphere due to the different perspective caused by being in the opposite part of the Earth. Just like how you might see a tree from one angle and then it looks different from another, the moon may seem to tilt or stand differently in the sky when viewed from the southern hemisphere compared to the northern hemisphere. It's fascinating how our beautiful moon can branch out its different personalities depending on where we are in the world.
What side is the waning moon on?
The waning moon appears on the left side when viewed from the Northern Hemisphere. During this phase, the illuminated portion of the moon decreases, moving from full to new. Conversely, in the Southern Hemisphere, the waning moon appears on the right side. This difference is due to the perspective from which observers in each hemisphere view the moon.
What is the difference between the waning and waxing phases of the moon?
In the northern hemisphere, if the left side of the Moon is dark then the light part is growing, and the Moon is referred to as waxing (moving toward a full moon). If the right side of the Moon is dark then the light part is shrinking, and the Moon is referred to as waning (moving toward a new moon). Assuming that the viewer is in the northern hemisphere, the right portion of the Moon is the part that is always growing (i.e., if the right side is dark, the Moon is growing darker; if the right side is lit, the Moon is growing lighter). In the southern hemisphere the Moon is observed from a perspective inverted to that of the northern hemisphere, so the opposite sides appear to grow (wax) and shrink (wane).

Which side of the moon is illuminated as it wanes from a full to new?
If you live in the Northern hemisphere, the illuminated side is on the left.In the Southern hemisphere, the opposite is true.

What phase the Northern Hemisphere see while the Southern Hemisphere is seeing a waxing moon?
the same

Why does the moon sometimes look like an upside down Southern Hemisphere moon even when viewed from Miami Florida at times?
Because Miami is in the northern hemisphere.
When will the moon be full?
Your question is full of holes. The first full moon after the next autumnal equinox in the southern hemisphere peaks on April 6, 2012 at 19:19 (7:19 PM) UTC. The first full moon after the next autumnal equinox in the northern hemisphere peaks on September 30, 2012 at 03:19 (3:19 AM) UTC.

What phase of the moon at sunset is in the southwestern sky?
If the Moon is in the southwestern sky at sunset, then you are in the northern hemisphere, and the Moon is in the waxing crescent phase. You can probably guess, within one day, how many days "old" the Moon is, in days after the new moon. If the Moon is straight south at sunset, then it was 7 days old at first quarter; if it was southwest, it was about 3-4 days past the new.
What side of the moon would have reflected light if it is in a waning phase?
If you live in the Northern Hemisphere, the left side of the moon is illuminated. If you live in the Southern Hemisphere, the right side of the moon is illuminated. Regardless of hemisphere, the western half of the moon is illuminated during the waning moon phases.
Can you see the moon at all times?
No, the moon is only up for approximately half of the day depending on it's declination in it's orbit. When the moon is at it's most northerly declination, the moon will be above the horizon for a much longer period of time when viewed from the Northern Hemisphere, and will be in the Northern Hemisphere sky for a much shorter period of time when the moon is at it's most southern declination - at the same time however, the moon will be in the Southern Hemisphere's sky for much longer.
Did the Harvest Moon happen last night?
The harvest moon is the full moon closest to the autumnal equinox, so in 2013 in the northern hemisphere it was the full moon that peaked on 19 September at 11:13 AM UTC.
