A possible thesis statement about the sun and the moon could be: "The sun and the moon play essential roles in shaping Earth's environment and human culture through their influence on climate, tides, and calendars."
People can see the Moon because it reflects light from the Sun. As the Sun's light hits the Moon's surface, it bounces off and travels to Earth, making the Moon visible to us. The Moon's appearance changes throughout the month due to its position in relation to the Sun and Earth, resulting in different phases.
Yes it does. It couldn't shine without the sun reflecting off of it.
When the moon is the one in the 'middle' . . . New Moon. When the Earth is the one in the middle . . . . Full Moon. (The Sun can never be the one in the middle.)
it isn't the sun is 450000 times brighter than the moon! no..
Most ancient calendars were based off of the Moon's position, the Stars' position, the Sun's position, and the season.
The calendar we use is based on the sun. Did you know that some calendars are based on the moon?

The Maya based their calendar on careful observation of the planets, sun and moon.
They used astronomy and the sun dial to make accurate yearly calendars
No, there are lots of different calendars used in the world today. Many are linked to cultures or religions and can be based on the movements of the sun or moon or both. Examples include calendars such as the Chinese, Islamic, Gregorian and Hebrew calendars.

Most calendars are in some way based on either the solar (Sun) or the lunar (Moon) cycle; some are based on both. Of the commonly used calendars:* The Gregorian calendar - the most widely used calendar worldwide - is based on the Sun. That is, the length of the year is based on the Sun; but the start of the year and the months is not related to any particular astronomical event.* The Jewish calendar is based on both the Moon and the Sun. As far as I know, it's the only widely used calendar that is based on BOTH. Some years have 12 months, others have 13 months.* The Muslim calendar is based on the Moon. A muslim year is about 11 days shorter than a Gregorian (solar) year.* Many other calendars are based on the Sun.
They are both luni-solar calendars, based on the lunar months with leap-adjustments to stay in step with the solar year.

The concept of counting years began with the development of calendars by ancient civilizations such as the Sumerians, Egyptians, and Babylonians around 3000 BCE. These early calendars were based on astronomical observations and cycles of the moon and sun.
Years and months are determined by how long the Earth takes to orbit the Sun for years, and how long it takes the Moon to orbit Earth for months. Astronomy is concerned with studying the Earth, Sun and Moon, along with other things in space.
