The same reason you have to look up to see the moon when you're standing on earth. From earth, the moon appears to move across the sky, but on the moon, the earth stays in the same spot at all times. This is because the near side of the moon is always pointing to earth while the earth rotates, which gives the moon the appearance of movement across the sky.
To an observer anywhere outside the atmosphere of a planet, including on the moon, the sky appears black everywhere except where a star or illuminated body appears.

The moon appears high in the sky because the moon is in space. We are on earth.We are on the ground and the moon is in the sky. The moon appears to be highest in the sky in the tropical regions of the world, just like the sun - since the moon's orbit is almost perpendicular to the tropics.At higher latitudes, the moon will appear lower in the sky for the same reason as the sun is.
