Not at all. The sun is a star; it is very hot and shines brightly because of this. It is very massive - almost all the mass of our solar system is in the sun. The moon is a cold rock, smaller than the earth. It appears to us to be about the same size as the sun; this is only because of the great difference in their distances from us. The sun is almost 400 times as far as the moon. The moon is dark. It only shines by reflected sunlight, or to a much smaller extent by reflected earthlight.
