On a cloudless day, when you look away from the Sun atthe rest of the sky, the sky is bright and you cannot seethe stars,On the Moon, however, the sky is dark and you cansee the stars even when the Sun is visible. Explain briefly.

When light travels through a medium, such as air or water, some of the light is absorbed by the medium's particles, followed by its subsequent radiation in a certain direction. This occurrence is known as light scattering. The size of the particles and the wavelength of the light affect how much light is dispersed.

The earth's atmosphere causes refraction and scattering of electromagnetic radiation at the surface, making the sky appear brighter. We cannot see the stars because of this brightness. There is no atmosphere on the moon's surface. Therefore, refraction cannot affect electromagnetic radiation. Therefore, the sky appeared to be dark from the moon's surface. As a result, even the Sun and stars can be seen on the surface of the moon.
