Moon phase today: What the Moon will look like on March 16

Tonight's Moon may look like it is completely out of sight, but if it's a clear night you should be able to spot a very thin sliver of light.

What is today’s Moon phase?

As of Monday, March 16, the Moon phase is Waning Crescent. According to NASA's Daily Moon Guide, 4% of the Moon will be lit up tonight.

Unfortunately, too little of the Moon is lit up to be able to spot any features on its surface tonight.

When is the next Full Moon?

In North America, the next Full Moon is predicted to take place on April 1.
