Does the moon provide light in the solar system?
No, the Moon generates no light of its own. However, it reflects the light of the Sun, so when you see moonlight you are actually seeing reflected sunlight.(They apparently didn't think about that when they created the vampire legends. If sunlight kills vampires and moonlight is just reflected sunlight, why doesn't moonlight kill vampires, too?)
Can rainbows be formed by the sun breaking up moonlight?
No. Rainbows are formed by the refraction of light due to water vapour in the atmosphere. While you can have 'moonbows' caused by moonlight (sunlight reflected by the moon), it still requires light + water vapour. Sunlight + moonlight alone, cannot form one.
