We've learned now about the moon's lunar phases: new moon, waxing crescent moon, first quarter moon, waxing gibbous, full moon and waning gibbous.
After waning gibbous, the moon continues to get darker on the right side.
Once it is about half dark, that is called the last quarter moon.
Remember that when the left side is dark, that is the first quarter moon.
