Best Answer

The Moon has no light of its own, it shines because the Sun's light is illuminating it. It takes the light from the Sun about 8 minutes to reach the Moon and 1.27 seconds to bounce off the Moon to your eyes.

As the Moon orbits the Earth every 27 days, there are 27 days between one Full Moon and the next.
