Yes. Specifically, such phases can be seen on Mercury and Venus. Mars and other planets that are further out are "almost-full", due to the fact that they are further away from the Sun. You could also see phases on asteroids, if they are in an appropriate position, and you use telescopes that are powerful enough.
Visually, that is correct, most of the time. The new moon happens when the moon is directly between the earth and the sun. So without very special equipment, it cannot be seen. However, this is the time when eclipses of the sun happen, and during eclipses we 'see' the moon eclipse the sun. We don't see very much detail; we see the moon in the sense that we don't see what the moon is blocking.
no it is not it is a gay tv show

The first man on the moon was 20 July 1969
The times that you are able to see New Moon varies depending on which theater you are wishing to go to. For show times, please visit your desired theater's website and check out the show times for New Moon.
The phases of the moon diagram show how the moon's appearance changes as it orbits the Earth. The position of the sun relative to the moon determines which part of the moon is illuminated, creating the different phases we see from Earth.
print out a calender and go outside every night and chart the moon for a month. then you would have seen the all the moon phases!
new moon first quarter moon full moon last quarter moon
The last quarter looks like half a moon, whereas a crescent moon (aka waning crescent or waxing crescent ) looks like a quarter of the moon. So no they are not the same. type in on Google "moon phases" and it'll show pictures of all the moon phases.
The moon orbits the earth, the only reason we can see the moon is because light is reflected off of it the moon only has phases because the earth is blocking some of the light from reaching it.
For the first 2 weeks after the New Moon, the illuminated portion of the moon is larger each night than it was on the previous night, as seen from the earth. These are known as the "waxing" phases.
the time it takes from one new moon to the next is 29 1/2 days.
The two motions that cause the Moon to show a complete cycle of phases each month are its orbit around the Earth and the Earth's rotation on its axis. As the Moon orbits the Earth, the angle between the Earth, Moon, and Sun changes, resulting in the various phases of the Moon. Simultaneously, the Earth's rotation allows us in New York State to observe these phases over the course of the month as the Moon rises and sets at different times. Together, these motions create the full lunar cycle we see each month.

In order for a planet to exhibit a crescent phase as seen from earth, it has to be closer to the sun than we are, meaning that its orbit has to be 'inside' the earth's orbit. For that reason, only Mercury and Venus can show crescent phases. But every planet can show phases where the illuminated portion appears to be 50% or more of the full disk.
There are 8 main phases of the Moon: (starting with the moon in front of the Earth [between Earth and Sun] and moving counter clockwise) - New Moon - Waxing Crescent - 1st Quarter - Waxing Gibbous - Full Moon - Waning Gibbous - 3rd Quarter - Waning Crescent - New Moon (again) I wish I could show a diagram, but I can't. Also you can have 2 full moons in a same month this is called a blue moon
Analyzing a moon phases diagram labeled can provide information about the different stages of the moon's appearance as it orbits the Earth, including new moon, first quarter, full moon, and last quarter. This can help understand the changing illumination of the moon and its position relative to the Earth and the Sun.
