Quoted By:
Sun & moon are ~3,000 miles away and nearly ~30 miles in diameter. The Sun produces hot light, the Moon produces light that is measurably cooler than when in the shadows at night. Objects have been seen through the semi-transparent Moon (such as stars and clouds), which is not a floating, grey desert rock. Here, the Mahabharata describes the Moon as a reflective lunar disc which may reveal the Moon to be a reflection of Earth's surface. In the Bible, Genesis tells us that the Moon is a lesser light of the night, and the Sun is greater and rules the day. Both local light sources, not far off rocks that can be 'visited'
