At right angles to the sun.
They are at 'right-angles', with the Earth at the corner of the right angle.
When the sun, Earth, and moon are at right angles, we experience either a first or third quarter moon phase. The sunlight illuminates half of the moon that faces Earth, creating the distinct crescent shape that we observe.
There is gravity on the moon.
There is gravity on the moon. Gravity comes from mass, which the moon has.

The moon does have gravity. Surface gravity on the moon is about 1/6 what it is on Earth.
