Detailed explanation-1: -When we look at the Moon, if it does not make its own light, why does it look so bright-where does the Moon get its light? The Moon gets its light from the Sun. In the same way that the Sun illuminates Earth, the Moon reflects the Sun’s light, making it appear bright in our sky.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Moon shines because its surface reflects light from the Sun.
Detailed explanation-3: -Moon is a non-luminous object as it does not produce its own light. It reflects the light of the sun which makes it appear bright at night.
Detailed explanation-4: -The sun always illuminates half of the moon and we can see the moon because the light produced by the sun is reflected from the moon’s surface. The illuminated shape of the Moon that we see from the Earth appears to change continuously as the moon revolves around the Earth during its 28 day journey.
