Answer:
Moon doesn't give off light of its own, that's why the moon is considered a non-luminous body. All its light we see is reflected from the sun and to a very minor effect, from the reflection of sunlight off the earth. ... The Moon rotates on its own axis at the same rate that it orbits around Earth.

Answer:
Although you can see light being emitted from the moon it is not, in fact, a luminous body. The light shining from the moon at night is simply a reflection of the sun’s rays off the celestial body.
As in, light from the sun shines down on the moon which absorbs some of it and reflects it down to earth. It shines light but doesn’t qualify as a luminous body because it doesn’t generate the light it reflects.
Hope it helps you!!!
