Why the light of the moon is not as hot as sun?
The moon does not produce its own heat or light; it merely reflects light from the sun. Since it is relatively small and so far from the sun, it only receives a tiny fraction of the sun's energy, and so is not nearly as hot.
Is the sun also a moon?
No, Sun isn't a moon . Sun is the red hot ball of fire and emits its own light, heat and energy but moon is luminous because of sunlight .
Why is the light of moon not as hot as the sun light?
The moon does not radiate any heat or light of its own, it merely reflects the sun's heat and light. But since the moon is many times smaller than the sun, it only receives a small fraction of the heat and light -- and much less when it is in the shadow of the earth. However, most of the heat and light striking the moon is absorbed by the moon itself, or is reflected into space, thus there's very little reflected back to earth.

Why does the sun gives light to the moon?
The same reason it gives light to the Earth - the Sun shines on the moon too.
Do the earth and moon make their own light and heat?
No. The moon reflects the sun's light and the earth is heated and lite by the sun.
Why the light of the moon is not as hot as the sun?
Because the light from the moon is only the reflected light from the sun so when the sun is shining on you it is actually coming down on you but the light shining from the moon is the light from the sun which at night time is on the other side of the world
How are the sun and moon different?
The sun is a star that is extremely hot and is a source of light for the planet. While the moon is a mass that orbits around earth and reflects light.
Why does the moon shine even though it does not have light if its own?
the moon shines because the sun's heat and light reflects on the moon
Other source of heat and light?
Sun, Moon for light, Light bulb etc
