the moon is its own independent light source, it does not reflect sunlight...
Why doesn't it reflect sunlight?
Please provide some form of evidence that is not an unaccredited pseudo scientist / troll messin with youtubers.

I have looked at the moon and dozens of satellites, a couple comets, and half a dozen or so asteroids/meteors so many of times over the years, using binoculars and telescopes.
It's insane to me that you cant just go outside at night, and do this for yourself.
I have looked at the reflector plate on the moons surface with my own personal telescope.
I even was able to shine a laser at it, and reflect it back down, as a lab project, in high school...
Would you like to see my transcripts? Or are those faked as well?

The surface of the moon is mostly a grayish white, almost the same color as snow.
Snow reflects a ton of light, so again, why wouldn't the moon?
