Answer:
The phases occur because the Sun lights different parts of the Moon as the Moon revolves around the Earth. That means the reason we see different phases of the Moon here on Earth is that we only see the parts of the Moon that are being lit up by the Sun

Answer:
The Moon itself does not generate light; it is lit up by the Sun. As the Moon orbits the Earth, the portion of illuminated Moon that we see changes – giving rise to the phases of the Moon.
