It dosent. You must Be talking about a new moon. The Moon revolves around the Earth and the sun Reflects Light off of it. When There is no Light On The Part We can see The Sun is Behind The Moon. There are many Moon Phases and This one, the New Moon You can't see.

The moon does not actually disappear. Instead, its visibility from Earth changes due to its varying phases, which are caused by the angle between the sun, Earth, and moon. When the moon is in its new moon phase, it is still there, but it is not visible from Earth because it is positioned between the Earth and the sun.

The answer to the question is unknown to real answer...i am not sure what happened but there has been times from last month that I know for a fact that the moon was not apparently visible at all even the clouds were not really out and for a clear night later that week I can put my life on the line that the moon for at least a Week out the month was not in the sky and the moon i know all my life was to big to ever be not see except as the untrained liar said at a new moon but even than u can see the shadow and still see a 1/32 of the whole thing or a edge of you may say but if I were to tell anyone that it was not there at all at any time people would say I was on drugs and folks ...this is not a drug hallucinations story ...I'm on a real answer here and folks no doubt i today saw the moon out leaving my mother's House about 10:30pm but at 3am i went to the store and i promise I looked on a clear night and again no moon ...stars everywhere but no moon..the saga continues
