The Moon is a dusty ball of rock, about as reflective as a charcoal briquette. It only seems bright because it reflects the extremely brilliant light of the Sun. The Moon produces no light of its own; we can see that at the first quarter moon, when the part that is in the sunlight is bright, and the part in shadow is very dim.
