As the Moon journeys from Full to New, the proportion of its illuminated side visible from Earth is (increasing/decreasing). This is known as (waxing/waning). The New Moon is highest in the sky to an earthbound observer at (noon, sunset, midnight, sunrise). The Full Moon is highest in the sky to an earthbound observer at (noon, sunset, midnight, sunrise).
