a sphere cannot physically reflect light. how then does the moon reflect light? if its because of the jagged terrain on the moon, then would this jagged terrain produce the illumination which you see when you look at the moon at night? if a christmas ornament is scaled up to the size of the moon, would it also reflect light in the way that the moon does? would the moon be able to reflect light if you scale it down to the size of a christmas ornament?
how does a sphere reflect light in the way that the moon does? it doesnt make sense for a sphere to reflect light in that way, or even at all. im going to test this soon anyway though
