The moon is not a star. Give reasons.​
Alenkinab [10]

A moon is a body orbiting another body.

A moon normally orbits a planet, but a moon can orbit another moon until it gets pulled away by something larger.

Stars are larger than planets or anything else in the Universe and they don't consist of solid materials like the Moon
