It happens and is called eclipse. The moon can never cover all of the earth in its shade however, so the eclipse will only be total in a small area on the earth's surface. A large area around it will just be dark.
The effects of an eclipse can only be noticed in areas where it is strong enough. Generally it is no different from a normal night, only it occurs during daytime. In other places it may only seem like a cloud is hanging in the sky.
