Detailed explanation-1: -The Sun, Moon and The Earth are somewhat spherical in shape.
Detailed explanation-2: -Another similarity between the sun and moon is that both bodies rotate, and both take a long time to complete a rotation by Earth standards, where one rotation takes about 24 hours, giving us the length of our day. The moon spins once on its axis every 29.5 Earth days. Parts of the sun take even longer.
Detailed explanation-3: -The Earth, moon, and sun occasionally form a triangle. The moon’s phase is determined by its position in relation to the sun and the Earth. As the moon circles around Earth, the phases vary, and various parts of the moon’s illuminated surface are visible from Earth.
Detailed explanation-4: -The sun rotates around its own axis, just like Earth. The sun rotates counterclockwise, and takes between 25 and 35 days to complete a single rotation. The sun orbits clockwise around the center of the Milky Way. Its orbit is between 24, 000 and 26, 000 light-years away from the galactic center.
