When the sun gives off light, the light is reflected off the surface of the planets and the moon, the color of the planet depends on which colors it absorbs and gives off, like the moon absorbs all colors except that greyish color, the grayish color is reflected back into space and when the light gets to earth, we see the color, and see the moon.
