Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A new moon occurs when the Moon is located between the Earth and the Sun, which means that the side of the Moon facing the Earth is not illuminated by the Sun. Since the new moon is located close to the Sun in the sky, it is typically not visible from Earth due to the brightness of the Sun.
