During the new moon phase, the Moon is not visible due to its alignment with the Sun and Earth, causing its dark side to face Earth.
During the new moon phase, the moon is not visible to observers on Earth because the Sun, Earth, and Moon are aligned in a way that the illuminated side of the Moon is facing away from us, leaving the dark side towards Earth.
In this position, the Moon is in conjunction with the Sun, causing the phase to be new. As a result, the dark, rocky surface of the Moon does not give off any light and hence appears invisible to us.
This alignment occurs when the Moon is between the Earth and the Sun along the ecliptic, leading to the new moon phase where the Moon rises at sunrise and sets at sunset.
