Question

Explain why the moon can be seen from earth

Answer 1

The moon can be seen from Earth because the sun's rays hit the moon, causing the light to be reflected by the moon.

In shorter words:

When the sun's rays hit the moon, the light reflects on the moon.

Answer 2

The moon has an orbit around the earth and we can see it at night because of the reflection of the sun's rays and energy that bounce back to the earth. This is what gives the moon the brilliant white glow. It's important to also remember that the earth has a rotation and an orbit around the sun.
