The Moon has no protective atmosphere, as Earth does. On Earth, the atmosphere absorbs part of the heat, and moves it around.
During the day the sun is out and shines on the moon, but at night the sun goes down, therefore the moon is dark when the sun is down.
It gets hot and cold. Hot because there is no atmosphere so the sun's rays get in much easily. Cold because there is not atmosphere to trap the heat and don't forget the moon rotates so it still has day and night.
The moon does not have an atmosphere - on the sunlit side it is excruciatingly hot whereas on the night side of the moon it is bitterly cold.
During the day, the surface temperature averages 107°C, and during the lunar night, it averages -153°C. How is the moon going to be hot during the DAY, if the moon comes out at night? Since the Moon and the Earth are approximately the same distance from the Sun, they receive sunlight of the same strength. So the temperature of the Earth and the Moon should be the same. It is the Moon's lack of atmosphere that creates such extreme temperatures. The Moon doesn't have an atmosphere to absorb sunlight like the Earth does, and so the surface gets very hot. The Moon's lack of atmosphere also lets heat escape during lunar nights so that it gets rather chilly on the surface!
The moon has no atmosphere. Sunlight strikes the mood completely unimpaired or scattered by atmosphere, and hence the surface of the moon is much hotter than boiling water during the day, and a few hundred degrees below zero at night.
The moon gets hot during the day because of the sun's rays hitting it. The moon gets cold at night because there is no atmosphere to hold in the heat from the day.
the temutre of the moon is really hot in the day and so cold at night.

They get hot in the day but they get cold at night. Deserts can have high temperatures in the day and cold at night.
the moon has no atmosphere so it does not regulate it's temperature. It gets incredibly hot during the day and incredibly cold during the night.
night=cold day=really hot
Some, such as the Sahara are hot in the day and cold at night. Others, such as the Antarctic, are simply cold.
in the day it gots very hot but in night it is freezing cold
deserts are hot during the day and cold at night
The moon does not have an atmosphere - on the sunlit side it is excruciatingly hot whereas on the night side of the moon it is bitterly cold.
Hot in the day and cold in night
