The major sources of light in space are the stars that are actively fusing matter.
Planets and moons shine by reflected sunlight. However, Earth (with its many electric lighting systems) does give off some light of its own, as do the volcanoes on some geologically active moons.
A planet has no source of light, any more than a rock does. Just like rocks,
you can only see a planet when something lights it up. For rocks, you can
use a flashlight. For planets, the sun does the job.
The sun is the center of your solar system
the only light primary light source in our solar system is our sun.
other lights can come from distant stars.

Planet Earth.
the moon is not a planet. The moon is a natural satelite that orbits the earth. It has no light but it will emit the sun's light at night.
No the moon is a piece of the earth that broke off when another planet collided with earth and stayed in orbit with the planet. The moons light is a reflection of the suns light. Stars are gigantic balls of gas that are burning up million, billion light years awhile.
Earth is the only known planet with a moon of the right size and distance to entirely block the light of the sun, producing a total solar eclipse. Partial solar eclipses (a moon passing between the sun and the planet it orbits) and lunar eclipses (a moon passing into the shadow of the planet it orbits) are commonplace and not limited to Earth.
In natural light, Mercury is grayish, much like the earth's moon.
The sun is a source of light, but it is not a planet.
The sun is a star that is extremely hot and is a source of light for the planet. While the moon is a mass that orbits around earth and reflects light.

When the moon blocks the Sun's light from reaching Earth, and also when our planet Earth blocks the Sun's light from reaching the moon.
They proved it when they went to the moon they saw the earth shinning. They then understood that the moon reflects the light from the earth
Earth is the closest planet the moon, as it is our planet's moon and orbits Earth.
No, the Sun is not the only light source in the univrse. Every star is it's own light source, just as the sun is, but due to there distance they are not very effective. The Moon also creates a light source, because it reflects the light from the Sun back to earth. In the same way, if we where on the Moon, the Earth would be a light source, reflecting the light from the Sun at the moon.
Earth is the closest planet to the moon and Venus follows as the second closest planet to the moon
The closest planet to the Earth's moon is the Earth.
The source is actually from the Sun. The Sun;s rays bounce off the moon and it goes to the Earth
