DirectionAbout the New Moon Phase
The Moon is positioned between the Earth and the Sun, with its illuminated side facing away from us. The Moon is virtually invisible from Earth. This is the start of a new lunar cycle. New moons are the best time for stargazing as there is no moonlight to interfere with faint celestial objects.
