They don't, though the only reason one could draw that conclusion could be because the moon reflects the suns light.
no the moon is bigger than the sun The sun is over 400 times bigger than the moon but since the moon is a lot closer to us than the sun and moon look the same size.
The sun and the moon are the same distance from the earth
the moon appears to be the same size as the sun because it is closer to earth
OK so we all know not to look at Sun? Right? So Does it hurt you to look at the moon. You See The moon Is illuminated when Its Next to earth But a lunar eclipse Is when the moon Is behind earth blocking the moon from Shining. Look at the sun while A Lunar eclipse is happening. its cool But don't look into a solar eclipse because The rays are even stronger when the moon and Sun Are shining at the same time. So no its not harmful to look into a lunar eclipse without protective eye wear
They appear to be the same size, as the sun is a very long distance away. The sun is many times larger than the moon.

Though the sun is bigger the moon is closer to earth creating the illusion that they are the same size. Hope this helped.
the moon is smaller but its closer. the sun is huge but its way farther away so that why they look the same size.

The answer to that truthfully is: "Mere coincidence".
The sun is millions of times bigger than the moon, but the moon is many times closer to Earth.
objects look bigger the closer to you they are. the moon is small, but close to earth. the sun is much larger, but much farther away.
it looks like an average day, except there is a moon.
When the moon is on the same side of earth as the sun ... in the same direction ... then we look up at the moon's un-illuminated side. We can't see any of it at all, and we call it the "New Moon" phase. If the moon is exactly lined up with the sun at that time ... not above or below it in the sky ... then it blocks the sun from our view, and we have a solar eclipse.
At new moon, the Moon is right next to the Sun - that is, you see it in the same direction, more or less. At new moon, the Moon rises together with the Sun.
The Sun is about 950,000 miles across. The Moon is about 2,160 miles across. Coincidentally, they LOOK the same size! The apparent diameter of the Sun is very nearly the same as the apparent diameter of the Moon, which is what makes eclipses so interesting. This is because the Sun is 93,000,000 miles away, while the Moon is only 250,000 miles away.
Callisto is a moon of Jupiter, so on average it is the same distance from the Sun as Jupiter is. You can easily look up the distance from the Sun to Jupiter.
