The moon phase that occurs after sunset and before sunrise is the waxing crescent. This phase appears as a thin sliver of light on the right side of the moon. It is considered the beginning phase of the lunar cycle.

What moon phase is highest in the sky at sunrise?

The moon phase that is highest in the sky at sunrise is the full moon. During this phase, the moon is directly opposite the sun in the sky, which means it rises around sunset and is highest at midnight. By sunrise, the full moon will have already begun to set, but it can still be seen high in the sky just before it descends.

The waning gibbous phase of the Moon. Think of it this way. The full moon rises at sunset, and sets around sunrise. The Moon's apparent motion in the sky is "backwards"; everything seems to move east to west, but from evening to evening, the Moon seems to be moving west to east. So the phase of the Moon that sets a couple of hours before sunrise is the waning gibbous moon, about 3 days past the full.
