Joshua.

Joshua 10:12-14

12 On the day the LORD gave the Amorites over to Israel, Joshua said to the LORD in the presence of Israel:

"Sun, stand still over Gibeon,

and you, moon, over the Valley of Aijalon."

13 So the sun stood still,

and the moon stopped,

till the nation avenged itself on[a] its enemies,

as it is written in the Book of Jashar.

The sun stopped in the middle of the sky and delayed going down about a full day. 14 There has never been a day like it before or since, a day when the LORD listened to a human being. Surely the LORD was fighting for Israel!

If we look at the moon its very bright why not when you stand on it?

When you look at the moon, the light you are seeing is actually only reflected off the surface of the moon from the sun. The moon appears to be very bright when we look at it from earth, because relative to the dark void of space around it is extremely bright. When you stand on it there will still be an amount of light arriving from the sun.

The moon is spherical and is lit by the sun. Only the side facing the sun can be lit by the sun. The other side is dark. If you were to stand on the moon you would find that the light side of the moon is experiencing day while the dark side is experiencing night.
