No. It's much dimmer than sunlight. You can't even really read a book by moonlight.

You could probably use a solar panel plus a sensitive voltmeter as a detector, to tell

when the moon is shining on it, but you couldn't get usable power out of it.

Does the planet with the most moons get the strongest gravity?

In our solar system, at least, the planet with the greatest mass does happen to be the one with the most known moons. But I think the cause and effect work the other way. It's not the moons that give the planet strong gravity. It's the strong gravity of the planet that captures a bunch of moons.


How does concentrated solar power work to generate electricity from sunlight?

Concentrated solar power uses mirrors to focus sunlight onto a receiver, which heats a fluid to create steam. The steam drives a turbine connected to a generator, producing electricity.


Why Venus have no satellite?

Since Earth's Moon was likely formed from a chance collision, the formation of moons may not have been a stable process in the inner solar system. Any moons that formed around Venus or Mercury could have been swept away by the stronger gravity of the Sun, as might smaller moons around Earth. If Mercury or Venus ever had satellites, they were lost long ago.


Will solar panels work during a blackout?

If the power goes out your system has an automatic safety feature to stop sending power to the grid. We install a Secure Power Supply with every system so that you can use the power that your system is generating through a dedicated outlet when the power is out but the sun is shining.


Who are the scientist study the solar system?

The scientists who studies planets or heavenly bodies are astronomers. They study by looking from the telescope at night and recording it. Afterwards, they give the information they've found.
