What is a wanning moon?

Answer 1

It means that the part of the moon illuminated by the sun, that we can see here on earth, is getting smaller.

Half the time the moon is waxing and half the time it is waning. A full cycle takes about 28 earth days, the time it takes the moon to orbit the earth once.

Answer 2

A decrease in the visible surface of the moon as the days progress.

Answer 3

Getting smaller. Waxing is getting bigger.

Answer 4

The moon is past the quarter(half) moon and getting smaller.

Answer 5

A waning moon is the phase of the moon when it appears to be getting smaller and less illuminated as seen from Earth. This occurs after the full moon and continues until the new moon.
