What else can I help you with?
Does the sun is hidden behind the moon at night?
If your question is 'Does the Sun hide behind the Moon at night?' Then no, it doesn't. As the Earth rotates on its axis and orbits the sun, different parts of the Earth are exposed to the Sun's light, this is the reason behind different time zones. For example Australia has a different daytime to ours because the Sun is over that area at a different time to the UK. So to answer your question, the Sun is just in a different area of the Earth at night time. The moon then 'comes up' because the Sun's rays are lighting up the surface of the moon, the rays are direct onto its surface, making it glow.
What does the moon have that the sun and moon don't have?
The moon has a gravitational effect on Earth that causes tides, which is not caused by the sun. Additionally, the moon has a surface with craters and mountains, while the sun is a ball of hot gases without a solid surface.
Does the moon gets more light from the sun than the earth does?
Since the moon does not have an atmosphere, the sunlight that reaches the surface of the moon is more intense than the sunlight that reaches the surface of the Earth after passing through the Earth's atmosphere.
How big is the moon compared to the sun?
Not to be rude, but if you think that the moon is any larger than Earth, you're in deep water. The moon is smaller than the surface of Asia, as a matter of fact, making the moon roughly 1/4 the size of Earth.
What mean when the moon is not complete circle?
When the moon is not a complete circle, it is in a phase other than full moon. The different phases of the moon, such as crescent, quarter, or gibbous, are a result of its changing position relative to the sun and Earth, causing varying amounts of the moon's illuminated surface to be visible from Earth.
What percentage of the moon's surface in lit by the sun?
Very slightly more than 50%.
How is sunshine different from moonlight?
Sunshine, or sunlight, comes directly from the sun. Moonlight is the sun's reflection off the Moon's surface.

Why does the moon look like it is different shapes?
because of the amount of sunlight on the surface. The relative position of the moon and the earth and the sun has an effect.

Whether sun and moon same?
sun and moon different sun bigger, farther, hotter, heavier, brighter than moon sun all gas, moon all rock people been to moon, no people been to sun you can see moon day or night, but you can't see sun at night
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.
Why do you think we see phases of the moon?
As the moon travels around the Earth, different parts of it are lighted by the sun. We see various parts of the face that are being lit by the sun. Since the sun and shadow move around the moon, we see different parts of the moon face, or phases of the moon.
How much of the moon is always lit up by the sun?
Roughly half of the moon is always illuminated by the sun. This is because the moon orbits Earth and as it does so, different portions of its surface receive sunlight, leading to different lunar phases.
