Waxing indicates growing or expanding illumination and happens after a new moon.
Waning indicates decreasing illumination and occurs after a full moon.
Crescent refers to the moon being less than half illuminated. Crescents can be waning or
waxing.
Gibbous describes a moon phase when more than half is illuminated. Gibbous can be waxing or
waning.
New Moon occurs when the moon is between the earth and sun, so the illuminated portion of the
moon is on the back side facing the sun and we cannot see it. After a new moon, the illuminated
portion will increase or wax until the full moon occurs.
Full Moon occurs when the earth, moon and sun are in approximate alignment, with the moon
and the sun on opposite sides of the earth. The illuminated portion of the moon faces the earth,
giving us complete visibility of one side of the entire moon. After a full moon, the illuminated
portion will decrease or wane until the new moon occurs.
First Quarter and Last Quarter moons occur when the moon is at a 90 degree angle to the earth
and sun. We see half of the moon illuminated and the other half is in shadow.

Collins, Colorado for best WWVB reception. Choose a location 6 feet or more from electronics such as
cordless phones, gaming systems, televisions, microwaves, routers, baby monitors, etc., which can
prevent signal reception.
