This is why it looks bright; the moon is only a whitish ball of rock.An example of a luminous object is the Sun.Because the sun is shining on it.Just like all of the objects in a dark room, you can't see them unless you shine aflashlight on them. The flashlight that makes it possible for us to see anything inthe solar system is the sun.
