The moon is mainly heated by the sun. But the moon has sunlight pretty much because it reflects off the sun. The sun is its own source of energy/light which comes from Nucleur Fusion. As the energy travels out from the surface of the sun it cools until then the Moon is preserved as Light. So Yes the moon is heated by the sun
