Not quite! A full moon occurs when the moon is on the opposite side of the Earth from the sun, with the Earth positioned between the moon and the sun. In this alignment, the entire illuminated side of the moon faces the Earth, making it appear fully lit.When the moon is between the sun and the Earth, that's called a new moon, and the moon appears dark from Earth because its illuminated side is facing away from us.
