Then what comes up in the evening? When it's not morning but it's not night...

This "sun" of yours goes "down" in the evening. The moon is almost always there though! and we wouldnt see it without this proverbial "sun". So if the "sun" doesnt go down on the "evening" then the moon wont come "up".

Starting with the full moon - A day or two before the "full moon" you will see the
moon rise just before sunset. At full moon it will rise as the sun sets, and of course
after the sun sets as the time goes on. Each night after, notice how the light on the
moon shrinks from full to last quarter and then to nothing (a 2 week time period).
Also during this time you will notice the moon "traveling" closer to the sun.
Two weeks from full moon (day may vary) look for the sliver of the moon just before sunset.
As the moon moves into NEW moon and you cannot see at all, watch for it to become noticable
as a sliver in the other direction as the sun sets. Follow the light on the moon as
it expands to first quarter and then to full. So you can actually see the moon and the sun
at the same time virtually most of the month.

actually the moon is always out its just the moon isn't seen much cause its blocked by maybe because its on the other side of the earth.I live in Hawaii which is near the equator and since i live almost in the middle of earth that its much easier to see into the sky and see the moon, i've the moon in the sky during day time its actually cool. But I don't think anything comes out during the day...maybe its just the twilight? When afternoon and night switch places???

The moon can and does come up at virtually any time of the night or day. It does not just come up at night. It can easily be seen during the day when it on that side of the earth.

If The Sun Comes Up

It's true that the sun is up in the day, but the moon is up at all different hours of the day and night, depending on its cycle. The earth turns every 24 hours, but the moon's revolution around the earth is closer to 25 hours. So sometimes the moon is up in the night and sometimes the moon is up in the broad daylight - and yes, you can see it in the day.

The moon comes up any time it wants. 24/7 day or night.

You mean during twilight?

How about Mercury? Most of the time it can be seen between either 4AM - 6AM, or 6PM - 7PM. The reason is it's proximity to the Sun. Sometimes it won't be visible due to it's position, but hey, the moon isn't visible all nights either :)

Both are present all the time. Only you can't see the moon during day.
