Wane & Wax
A waning moon refers to the time between the full and new phases; a waxing moon refers to an increase in the illuminated lunar surface area.

If, for example, the task is to empty a length of glass tubing of water (without breaking it) by removing wax plugs about a half-inch up the tube from each end, and the only potential tools are a few objects ordinarily found on a desk top, ...
Starting from the so-called new Moon, which is all but invisible in the sky, the Moon appears to wax (or grow) a little each night and is visible as a growing crescent (panel 1 of Figure 1.14).

For 8 or 9 years after the photon franchise folded, it was home to a wax museum. This was really awkward, seeing wax dolls occupy the space where I used to shoot people.
The Moon continues to wax. Once more than half of the disc is illuminated, it has a shape we call gibbous. The gibbous moon appears to grow fatter each night until we see the full sunlit face of the Moon. We call this phase the full moon.
The latter are composed of frozen carbon dioxide (CO2) and underlying water ice (H2O), and wax and wane during the Martian year.
At the other end of the two-tube assembly, tape a piece of wax paper (your screen). Aim the tube at the Sun, and notice how sliding the tubes in and out changes the size of the Sun image projected on the wax paper.
Phases. Phases of the Moon Over the course of a month, the Moon appears to grow ('wax') and shrink ('wane').
The phases occur because half of the Moon is illuminated by the Sun. But this is not always the same half that is visible from the Earth.
The bees then plaster the beetle with a "concrete" made of wax, resin, and mud, mummifying and eventually killing it.
Then bee wax was melted on optical surface as well as on one of the other pieces and all three were sandwiched together. Air bubbles were squeezed out and the "sandwich" was left to slowly cool down in the oven.
The great Danish astronomer Tycho Brahe was one of the more colourful characters in the history of astronomy. As a student he had part of his nose cut off in a duel. He made a replacement out of gold, silver and wax.

These periods are correlated with times of maximum solar heating of the Martian surface.
Polar Caps
Mars has polar caps that wax and wane with the Martian seasons. The following image and animation show the North Polar Cap.
Consequently, as the planet travels around its star exhibiting different phases, the levels of daylight and artificial light from the night-side would be seen to wax and wane.
Diffusion occurs when a beam of light passes through a translucent medium (e.g. wax or frosted glass) or is reflected by a rough surface (e.g. paper or matt paint). (see also Reflection; Refraction) [DC99] ...
(b) The random spreading out of a beam of radiation on reflection or transmission. Diffusion occurs when a beam of light passes through a translucent medium (e.g. wax or frosted glass) or is reflected by a rough surface (e.g. paper or matt paint).
As he clutched the reeds the wind blew through them, creating an enchanting sound. Pan selected reeds of different lengths and stuck them together with wax to form the famous pipes of Pan, also called the syrinx.
The model, measuring 48×24×27 inches, was constructed out of wood and skinned in wax so that simulated damage could be easily sculpted on the surface but could also be easily reversed if the need arose as it eventually would in Star Trek III: The ...
