- It's called Earth-shine. To understand earth-shine, remember that the moon is globe, just as Earth is, and that the globe of the moon is always half-illuminated by sunlight. When we see a crescent moon in the west after sunset, or in the east before dawn, we're seeing just a sliver of the moon's lighted half.
- Earth-shine is a dull glow which lights up the unlit part of the Moon because the Sun's light reflects off the Earth's surface and back onto the Moon. A Waxing Crescent Moon lit up by earth-shine.
