One week after the full moon, the moon is in its third quarter phase. During this phase, the left half of the moon appears illuminated when viewed from the Northern Hemisphere, while the right half appears illuminated from the Southern Hemisphere. This is because the sunlight is shining on the opposite side of the moon compared to the full moon phase.

What moon phase is it when the right half of the moon is illuminated?
There are two phases of the moon that appear to be a half disk: the first quarter and the third quarter. The entire cycle of moon phases takes about 28 days (27.3217 days). Counting the day of a new moon as the first day, then the phases in order are: • waxing crescent • first quarter (a half lit moon resembling the letter "D") at end of week one • waxing gibbous • full at end of week two • waning gibbous • third quarter (a half lit moon resembling the letter "C") at end of week three • waning crescent • and back to the new moon, completing the cycle after week four

After the waxing crescent phase, the Moon enters the first quarter phase. During this phase, half of the Moon's surface is illuminated as seen from Earth, and it appears as a half-circle.
