Moon phase today: What the Moon will look like on November 4, 2026

On November 4, 2026, the Moon will be in its waning crescent phase. According to NASA's Daily Moon Guide tracker, only 25% of the Moon's surface will be visible from Earth. This phase occurs after the last quarter moon and before the new moon. During the waning crescent phase, the illuminated portion of the Moon continues to decrease, with less than half of the Moon's surface appearing bright.

The visible area will consist of a thin sliver of light on the left side of the Moon, as observed from the Northern Hemisphere. As the Moon continues its orbit around Earth, it will transition through the remaining lunar phases, eventually reaching the new moon phase.
