Because it doesn't burn like the sun. It only reflects the rays frrom the sun, which is why we're able to see it clearly.
The moon's light is reflected from the sun, so the moon itself is not a source of light. The light you see is light hitting the moon from the sun.
The moon is not a source of light because it simply reflects the suns light, therefore it is not a direct source of light
No, moon is not a light source, if we consider the moon as a light source, the mirror will also be called a source of light!!!! Every object seen by reflecting light from another object is called a non luminous body. As mirror, book, cup are not light sources, moon is not also a light source because it just reflect the light from the sun.
Yes because it is a source of light. However, the moon is not direct light as it is not a source. It reflects the light of the sun and that is why we see the moon as 'shining.'
Yes, but it is not a "direct source" of its light. The Moon, like the Earth, is illuminated by the light of the Sun. The moonlight that we see is simply the part of the sunlight that is reflected by the lunar surface. This is easily seen by the phases of the Moon, when only part of the Moon's lighted surface is visible from Earth, and we cannot see the non-illuminated portion.During an eclipse of the Moon, the Earth is directly between the Sun and the Moon, so very little light makes it to the Moon.When there is a new moon phase, the Moon is between the Sun and the Earth, so we cannot see any of the illuminated part of the Moon.

No. The moon reflects light off the sun.
The Moon reflects the light of the Sun.
Our sun is the source.

No. The moon shines because it reflects light from the Sun.
Jupiter and its moons get light from the same source we do: the sun.
It does not produce its own light source but is refleting rays from the sun
No, the Sun is not the only light source in the univrse. Every star is it's own light source, just as the sun is, but due to there distance they are not very effective. The Moon also creates a light source, because it reflects the light from the Sun back to earth. In the same way, if we where on the Moon, the Earth would be a light source, reflecting the light from the Sun at the moon.
