Clara Becker · Answer 1

A full moon is when you can see the whole moon and a new moon is when you cannot see the moon.

Waller · Answer 2

The new moon phase occurs when the Moon is directly between the Earth and Sun ... A full moon is when we can see the entire lit portion of the Moon. The full moon phase occurs when the Moon is on the opposite side of the Earth from the Sun, called opposition. A lunar eclipse can only happen at full moon.
