    Sun emits its own light. Moon does not. 

    Moon can orbit the earth. The sun cannot.

    Sol can create nuclear fusion. Luna cannot.
    The moon can eclipse Sol, but not the other way around.

    The moon can 'moon' the sun, whereas the sun can only 'sun' the moon.
    The sun can only hide its 'acne', where was the moon cannot (it's literal 'crater face').

    You never saw sun spots? I had a telescope and showed them to my students and anyone else that passed by.

    Sunspots are temporary acne.  A crater face can last for many years.

  • The sun can burn your skin, the moon cannot.

    The moon often appears after daylight .. the sun doesn't appear after dark.
