The reason they seem to move at all is that we are standing on a rotating ball (the Earth) while we look at them. The direction of rotation of the Earth makes it look as though other objects - not just the Sun and Moon but the stars also - are moving westwards.
The moon appears to move in the sky as you move because of its position relative to the Earth. As you change your viewpoint by moving, the angle at which you see the moon changes, causing it to appear to shift its position in the sky. In reality, the moon is staying in its orbit around the Earth.
the moon isnt in the sky its in space
The Moon appears to travel eastward across the sky due to the rotation of the Earth. As the Earth spins on its axis from west to east, the Moon's position shifts relative to the stars, making it seem to move in the opposite direction. This eastward motion is also influenced by the Moon's own orbit around the Earth, which takes about 27.3 days to complete. Consequently, on most nights, the Moon rises in the east and sets in the west, following this general eastward path.
The moon revolves around Earth, which makes it seem like it rises, either at day or night.
The moon appears to move from east to west.
Why do searts appear to move westward across the sky?

The sun and moon appear to move across the sky each day because of the Earth's rotation on its axis. As the Earth spins from west to east, celestial bodies like the sun and moon seem to rise in the east and set in the west. This rotation creates the illusion of movement in the sky, even though the sun and moon are in their own orbits around the Earth.

Why dont we always see the moon
because it is like a big ball in the sky
The moon appears big in the sky due to an optical illusion called the "moon illusion." This occurs when the moon is near the horizon, making it seem larger compared to when it is higher in the sky.

The moon goes in the direction of its orbit
The moon appears to move from east to west.
The sun and moon appear to move across the sky due to the rotation of the Earth on its axis. As the Earth rotates from west to east, celestial objects like the sun and moon appear to rise in the east and set in the west. This movement is an optical illusion created by our perspective on the rotating planet. Additionally, the moon's own orbit around the Earth contributes to its changing position in the sky over days and months.
