What is The lightest part of a shadow called?

I believe you mean the lightest part of Earth's shadow casted upon the moon and the answer to that would be: The lightest part of Earth's shadow upon the moon is called the penumbra. In fact any shadow is divided between that totally blocked (umbra) and partially blocked by the light source (penumbra) so the Penumbra can indeed be the moons partial shadow on the earth during a partial or total solar eclipse

Why doesnt the earth get bigger if rocks are forming?

The earth does get bigger! Every time a meteorite hits the earth, or even if it burns up in the atmosphere, the "mass" of that meteorite adds to the mass of the earth. Simply put, mass is weigh and material. Rocks however don't add too much mass to the earth. Rocks are formed from lava (igneous rocks) or from part of the earth's crust (sedimentary rocks). They don't add any weight to the earth because when the weight of the rocks is added to the weight of the rest of the earth, the total weight is the same as it was before the rocks were formed. I believe your question has more to do with size. In other words, if more and more rocks are being formed on the outside of the earth, why doesn't the earth get bigger? The answer is similar. The rocks that are formed on the outside of the earth come from the inside of the earth. Therefore, when rocks are formed on the outside of the earth, they leave empty spaces inside the earth. In reality, the"empty space inside" that I mentioned could be very small and is not deep in the earth's crust. The empty spaces won't make the earth fall in on itself all of the time. If water from under the earth's crust are carried away, however, sinkholes can form. Much more mass needs to be added to the earth until the earth can become noticeably bigger
