At all times (except during eclipses) the half of the moon facing 
the sun is illuminated.  A full moon occurs when all of that 
illuminated half (or very nearly all) is visible.  That can only 
happen when the earth is between the sun and moon, which means 
that a full moon can't be seen in the daytime.
