What phase of the moon is the entire lit surface of the moon seen from Earth?
The phase of the moon when the entire lit surface is visible from Earth is called the Full Moon. During this phase, the Earth is positioned between the Sun and the Moon, allowing the sunlight to fully illuminate the Moon's surface. This occurs approximately once a month, making the Full Moon a prominent feature in the night sky.

Wow! Let's see if we can sort this out. The problem is the phrase "half side". Half of the moon's surface is always illuminated by the sun. You can call that 50% "the lit side". When the entire lit side is facing the Earth, we see a Full Moon. We see only 1/2 of the lit side one week after a New Moon and again one week before the next New Moon. The first occasion is called the First Quarter phase, and the second occasion is called the Third Quarter phase.
