have a look at what that guy has to say

@Steve Angell you can research it yourself, it's not difficult

One has the USA huge. Another has the USA tiny. One has SEX in the clouds west of Baja California upside down. But sure those are real? Really?

I walk a lot at night. It is colder in moonlight.

Have you measured it?

the moon is certainly an odd thing

Im sorry but why are arguing about whether shade is colder or not

Take a magnifying glass with moon light. It is not the least bit warm. Colder than without it. Use that with the sun and your hand is burnt in an instant.

some peple think the moon is its own light source and is cooler

What?

We all been in a shade in some point in our lives right

Where would the light come from though

Have you never used a magnifying glass to start paper on fire. Try it with moonlight.

there was a scientist claiming he proved the moon was made of plasma in the 50s

i dont know, it isnt something that is important to me

Fair enough

it doesnt effect the shape of the earth

The moonlight is too weak to make a difference¨

I suppose

Always a lame excuse without merit.

And it certainly does not become colder at the focal point

Sunlight does not start paper on fire. Without a magnifying glass.

You can use a very large one and melt rocks.

I'm not an idiot @Steve Angell

in favour of the idea of the moon giving its own light is that we can see a crescent moon at night time

@Logad Then do not tell me moonlight is too weak. The magnifying glass makes it many times stronger. But it does not work the same as with sunlight. Two very different kinds of light. How is that possible. Impossible were it reflected sunlight. Use a mirror and you will can light a fire with sunlight.

Of course you can concentrate the sun light with a magnifying glass, we call them burning glass here

Still, the moonlight is way too weak to make a difference even with a magnifying glass

So it should work with moonlight. Yet all you get is a small image of the moon that feels cold not the least bit warm.

Moon emits cold light

No

Yes
Prove me wrong

It emits reflected sunlight

Just test it with a burning glass.

My kid told me the moon is round 🙄

Prove me right
