What else can I help you with?
After a waxing gibbous moon you will see what moon phase next?
"Waxing" is the term used when the Moon's illuminated part is growing in size, while "waning" means that the lighted part is decreasing. "Gibbous" means more than half, but not full. So "waxing gibbous" is the phase of the Moon between the first quarter and the full moon.
What can you not see a full moon or a waxing moon or a waning moon?
You can see all three of these. The phase of the moon when it is not visible is called new moon.
What earth phase do you see when you see a waxing gibbous phase on the moon?
It would be the opposite. If we went to the moon when it was full, we would look back at an earth in shadow (a `new earth`) If we went to the moon when it was new, then it would be between us and the sun, so we would look back at a full earth. For a waxing gibbous from earth, the earth would be a waning crescent from the moon.
From new moon phase to full moon phase what will you see?
From new moon (I think 'no moon' might have been misspelled or misheard as new moon) we see, Waxing Crescent First Quarter Waxing Gibbous Full Moon. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks to Paracelcus, as the above has been sent by him only.

A gibbous moon (waxing or waning) is when we can see morethan half of the moon's sunlit side when viewed from Earth, a gibbous moon has a sort of lemon shape. A crescent moon (waxing or waning) is when we can see less than half of the moon's sunlit side and it looks like a fingernail when viewed from Earth.
