No, they are physical features of the moon itself. The dark areas are geologically younger, and the light areas are older and at a higher elevation.
the moon is a verry complicated subject, there isno name for it cause the moons light reflection changes so slowly you would have to stay awake for 10 hours at night to see it move an inch.
Moonlight is not a reflection that was "discovered" by a single individual; rather, it is a natural phenomenon resulting from sunlight reflecting off the surface of the Moon. The understanding of this reflection has evolved over centuries, with contributions from various astronomers and scientists. Notably, the work of figures like Galileo and Isaac Newton helped to explain the nature of light and reflection, but the concept of moonlight itself has been observed and acknowledged since ancient times.
It arrives directly from the sun or comes in via the reflection off the earth, the moon, or anything else orbiting nearby.
South America and Africa are the most notable continents that fit together like a jigsaw puzzle (as all continents do). This suggests that continents were connected at one time and that they are mobile and constantly moving.
Sometimes the dark part of the moon is illuminated by the reflection of sunlight off the Earth. It is called Earthshine. Check this site http://home.hiwaay.net/~krcool/Astro/moon/earthshine/
The Moon's light is reflected sunlight.
no
It changes by the sun's reflection on different parts of the moon
What allows the moon shine is the reflection of the sun.
Terrains of the moon
The sun reflects light off of the moon and what we see is the shadow of that reflection on the moon.
Reflection of the sun.
The rising and setting of the Sun, the Moon, and the stars is simply a reflection of the rotation of planet Earth.The rising and setting of the Sun, the Moon, and the stars is simply a reflection of the rotation of planet Earth.The rising and setting of the Sun, the Moon, and the stars is simply a reflection of the rotation of planet Earth.The rising and setting of the Sun, the Moon, and the stars is simply a reflection of the rotation of planet Earth.
No the moon is made of dust and dirt. It does reflect the sunlight though.
the light from the moon is a reflection of the light from the sun
We are not able to see the moon because the light reflection coming off of the sun but when the sun goes down we can see the moon perfectly because there is no sun reflection
It is a reflection of the sun.
