The sun's sunlight.
reflected
Planets and moons do not produce their own light. They shine brightly because they reflect sunlight. The reflection of sunlight off their surfaces is what makes them visible and appear to shine in the night sky.
The moon shines because it reflects light from the sun. Sunlight hits the surface of the moon, and the reflective properties of the moon's surface cause it to shine and appear bright in our night sky.
The light comes from the reflection of the suns light off their surface. It may seem like there is not enough light to make them shine so much, but compared to the night sky, there is enough reflected light off their surfaces for us to see detail in the moon and planets.
Yes, that's how it works.

The moon only apears to shine because it reflects sunlight from its surface. During a solar eclipse the moon passes between the Sun and the Earth so the sunlight reflects off the surface of the moon which is not visible from Earth.
SUN A DOY for light
