Reflected sunlight, for sure, travels from the Earth to the Moon. Reflected sunlight from the Moon also travels to Earth. That is why we can see the Moon.
Its rays are filtered somewhat by all the atmosphere that they travel through.
This is ultimately the result of temperature differences; the energy comes from sunlight. Note that air masses need to travel in BOTH directions, since the air can't just accumulate in one place.
No. Sound is simply vibrations of particles that travel in a sort of "wave" motion. Since there is no medium (particles of matter) in space, it is not possible for there to be sound.Sound waves require a medium to travel through. They travel by knocking particles into other particles, causing a vibration to be transmitted.As outer-space is a vacuum, there is no matter present; this means that there is no medium for sound waves to travel through. Therefore, sound cannot travel in space.

The lack of atmosphere in space means there are no particles to scatter or absorb starlight. This allows starlight to travel through space unaffected, resulting in clearer and sharper images of stars as observed from telescopes or spacecraft.
Dimmer or brighter than what? Sunlight hitting the earth straight-on, as at the equator, is brighter, hotter and includes more intense ultraviolet radiation. Sunlight at an angle, the poles, for example, is less intense because it has to travel through more atmosphere. The atmosphere acts as a filter, effectively dimming the sun's radiation.
It gets colder as you travel up in the atmosphere.

I found out it is Red because It has to do with the amount of dust and water vapor in the atmosphere that the sunlight has to pass through and this light is slowed down to the color red.

Sound would travel in the moon's atmosphere if the moon had any atmosphere, but since it hasn't, it doesn't.
Sunlight, or sunrays, travels at the speed of light, which is about 186,282 miles per second (299,792 kilometers per second) in a vacuum. When sunlight enters the Earth's atmosphere, it slows down slightly due to interactions with particles in the atmosphere, but it still travels at a very fast speed.
It takes about 8 minutes and 20 seconds for sunlight to travel from the sun to Earth.

Starlight travels through space in straight lines at the speed of light. It can be affected by the gravitational pull of massive objects, causing it to follow curved paths around them, a phenomenon known as gravitational lensing.
During summer, the sun is higher in the sky, so its rays travel a shorter distance through the Earth's atmosphere, resulting in less absorption and scattering of the sunlight. This makes the sunlight more intense, leading to hotter temperatures. In winter, the sun is lower in the sky, causing its rays to travel through more of Earth's atmosphere, which reduces the intensity of the sunlight and makes it feel less hot.
