In this project, we analyze and predict lunar phases based on observations of the moon. Starting from a new moon where no illuminated part is visible, we document the progression through various phases: waxing crescent, first quarter, waxing gibbous, full moon, waning gibbous, last quarter, and waning crescent. Each phase is illustrated with the corresponding day after the new moon, showcasing how the moon's visibility changes over time. This study enhances our understanding of lunar cycles and their visual characteristics.
