Well, honey, a new moon is basically when the moon seems to disappear from the sky because the side facing Earth is in shadow. A full moon is when the moon is shining bright like a diamond because the side facing Earth is fully illuminated by the sun. In simpler terms, one is as dark as a creepy abandoned alley and the other is as bright as a spotlight on a stage.
