Original Note:
According to science, the claim that moonlight cannot cast sharp shadows is false. Sharp shadows are created if the light source is small compared to the distances involved. https://www.sciencelearn.org.nz/resources/2771-light-and-shadows A full moon directs enough sunlight toward our planet to cast sharp shadows on the ground. https://moon.nasa.gov/moon-in-motion/sun-moonlight/moonlight/
