All of the moon reflects light, but what is visible from earth depends on the moon cycle and the location of the observer. A full moon means the whole side of the moon we see is lit, and the lit portion continues to trail off until the New Moon, which reflects almost no light at all back to earth. We should also note that half the moon is lit up at all times, except during eclipses. It is just that from earth, we see the moon go through phases.

Why does the moon reflected so much light?

Were does light from the moon come from?
The light from the moon comes from the sun's rays reflecting off its surface. The moon does not produce its own light, it simply reflects the sunlight that reaches it from the sun.
Why doesn't the moon shine as bright as the sun?
The Moon reflects the light of the Sun; it produces no light of its own. What's really amazing is how MUCH light the Moon reflects - considering that the "albedo", or reflectivity of the Moon is about the same as a charcoal briquette. It only reflects about 3% of the light that hits it - but the Sun's light is so enormously bright that 3% is almost enough to light up the night sky.
Do the earth and moon make their own light and heat?
No. The moon reflects the sun's light and the earth is heated and lite by the sun.
