Answer:

Hey buddy.....

The Moon doesn't have an atmosphere to absorb sunlight like the Earth does, and so the surface gets very hot. The Moon's lack of atmosphere also lets heat escape during lunar nights so that it gets rather chilly on the surface!

Hope it helps you!!!

Answer:

Sun is very hot because there is a lot of burning of matter on the star Sun.  A nuclear fission chain reaction happens on the surface of Sun.  The heat produced from the nuclear reaction makes Sun red hot and some energy is emanated in the form of radiation.   This radiation carries a lot of energy.  That hits us and heats up our bodies and the atmosphere.

   Moon is a planet and is like Earth - in receiving light and energy from Sun.

   Moon receives radiation during the day on moon and then in the night, the energy is radiated back in to the atmosphere.  So moon remains cool.
