* The New Moon is invisible: It's a phase where the Moon is between the Earth and the Sun. Since the sunlit side of the Moon is facing away from us, we can't see it.
* Height refers to an object in the sky: We talk about the height of the Sun or other celestial objects based on their angle above the horizon. Because the New Moon is not visible, it doesn't have a measurable height.
What we can talk about:
* Lunar altitude: This refers to the angle of the Moon above the horizon at a given time. However, this measurement only applies to visible Moon phases.
* Moon's position: Astronomers track the Moon's position in the sky using coordinates, but these are not typically referred to as "height."
