Explanation:

Some people assume the phases are caused by the Earth's shadow cast on the Moon. The Moon's phase is determined solely by its location in relation to the Earth and the Sun. The Moon, like all the planets, does not produce its own light; instead, it reflects the Sun's light. One half of the Moon is still illuminated by the Sun.
