3/4 of the moon
On December 3, 2010, the phase of the moon was a waxing crescent. This means that the moon was transitioning from a new moon to a first quarter moon, with only a small portion of its surface illuminated.
A waxing (growing) gibbous moon is between first quarter and full. The first quarter moon rises at noon, and a full moon rises at sunset. So it probably rises around 3:00 - 5:00 PM and sets 12 hours later.
The moon appears as a waxing (growing) crescent for about a week, between the moments of New Moon and First Quarter.
3 days ago, the moon was likely in its waxing crescent phase, with only a small sliver of the moon visible in the evening sky.
First Quarter
At 3 o'clock in the afternoon, the moon is typically in the waxing gibbous phase, meaning it is more than half illuminated but not fully full. However, the specific phase can vary depending on the lunar cycle. If the moon is visible in the afternoon sky, it would be in the waxing or waning phase, as it rises and sets at different times throughout its cycle.
If it is 3 o'clock in the afternoon in New Jersey, it is also 3 o'clock in the afternoon in Missouri. New Jersey and Missouri are in the same time zone, Eastern Standard Time (EST).
