Phases of the moon:
A change in the shape of the moon is observed every day. There are some days when the moon appears to be perfectly round in shape. And sometimes, the moon is not visible at all, even if the sky is clear. This shows that there are different phases to the moon.
The different shapes of the bright portion of the moon when Sun's light falls on it are called as the phases of the moon. The names for the different shapes of the moon are the new moon, the crescent moon, the gibbous moon, and the full moon.
