This is for homework.
I also see where you're going.
Haha,
I know they're phases.
I just forgot some of them because my mind just went blank for a moment.
I'm in advance science so of course I know what the moon is and what it does.
Duh.
Thanks though,
I guess.

What gets me worried about a question like this (and we seem to get plenty) is that people should be able to see the moon all their lives, in different phases.
Tell me, when was the last time you saw the moon? You should get out more.
