What does the sun do when the full moon rises?
When the full moon rises, the sun has already set on the opposite side of the Earth. The sun is no longer directly illuminating the moon, but its light is still reflecting off the moon's surface, creating the full moon's brightness.
What is the difference between the light from the sun and light from the moon?
The sun produces its own light when it transforms hydrogen into helium. The moon gets its light from the sun. It doesn't produce light. The brightness that we see on the moon is a reflection of the sunlight.
How much more light does the sun provide then the full moon?
The sun provides about 400,000 times more light than the full moon. This vast difference in brightness is due to the sun being a powerful star that emits its own light, while the moon only reflects light from the sun.
Why stars are not as bright as the moon?
In terms of actual brightness the stars are much brighter than the moon and some are even brighter than the sun. They only appear dim because they are much farther away than either the sun or the moon.
What do you see when the Moon moves away from between the Sun and Earth?
When the Moon moves away from between the Sun and Earth, a solar eclipse ends, and the full brightness of the Sun is no longer obscured. The Moon's movement allows sunlight to be fully visible again from Earth, ending the eclipse phenomenon.
Can you see sun from moon?
Yes, the brightness of the moon is the sun reflecting light off of the moon's surface so te sun reaches the moon.
How does the sun make moonlight?
the moon shines because the brightness of the sun is so bright that it reflects off of the moon as if the moon was a mirror
Where is the moon when it cannot be seen before the new moon?
Right in front of the Sun. The brightness of the Sun makes it difficult to see the Moon.
Could you see the earths light if you were on the moon?
In the same way we see brightness from the Moon as a result of the Sun shining on it, you would see brightness on the Earth from the Moon when the Sun is shining on it. You would not be able to see normal lights, like street lights, from the Moon.
Is the brightness of the moon caused by the speed of it travelling around the earth?
No. The brightness of the moon is caused by the sun shining on it, just like the brightness of a beach, a snowdrift, a mountainside, or a lake, none of which travels around the earth.

Do comparision of sun and moon?
sun is a star and moon is an natural satellite no comparison between powers of them being a star sun creates lots and lots of energy through fisson reaction ,but moon is just a mass which revolves around the earth .its gets its brightness from sun.
What makes it possible to see the Moon from Earth?
to use ur eyes wow really -.-..... Light emitted by the Sun is reflected to Earth by the Moon's surface.
What is the difference between a new moon and any other phase of the moon?
The phases of the moon are the earth's shadow on it relative to the position of the sun. When the moon is full there is no shadow and reflects the full brightness of the sun. More info: http://www.calculatorcat.com/moon_phases/moon_phases.phtml
How much brighter is a full moon than a half moon?
On the side of the moon that the sun is shining on, the temperature reaches 260°Fahrenheit! That is hotter than boiling. On the dark side of the moon, it gets very cold, -280° Fahrenheit. The moon is about 2,000 miles across.
