29.5 earth days is one moon day wich is the length of the moons day
Because the months are not the same length as the time between full moons. The months are not even all the same length as each other, so there's no way they could match up with anything that always takes the same length of time.
Waning.
The glare of sunlight dominates the sky.
The length of a "day" on the moon is 29 Earth days.
Mars has a similar day length to Earth, a little longer at 24h 39m 35s (apparent solar day).
We have moons to separate night and day
planets have moons for day and night
The planet that is half the size of the earth, has 2 moons, and has an atmosphere of mostly carbon dioxide is Mars. The average length of a day on Mars is 37 minutes longer than that of the Earth.
Same as it's orbital period, about 27.32 days.

The length of a planet's day is determined by the speed of it's rotation on it's axis. The faster the rotation, the shorter the day. The slower the rotation, the longer the day. This is affected by many factors such as any moons the planet may have (orbital speed, rotation speed or tide lock, distance and direction of travel of the moons all should be considered), past collisions with other large bodies (planetoids and other planets and their moons), and how the stellar dust and debris were moving and colliding when the planet was formed. Some planets are tide locked to their star and have no rotation and therefore no relative "day". One side faces forever toward the blazing heat of it's star, while the other side faces an eternal frozen night.
the length of day on earth is 24 hours
