To design planet earth and her moon would take some thinking!
Earth’s orbit around the sun – 365 days
Moons orbit around the earth – 13.37 times
Moons rotation on its axis 13.37
*** Why we always see the same side of the moon
Moon farthest from earth – 252,088 miles
Moon closest to earth – 225,623 miles
Earth would be a very different world if it had no Moon. The Moon's gravity keeps our planet from wobbling on its axis too much, which helps to stabilize our climate. The Moon also plays an important role in creating Earth's ocean tides. The Moon takes about one month to orbit Earth (27.3 days to complete a revolution, but 29.5 days to change from new moon to new moon). - Top Moon Questions - NASA Science

Well, we have no light of our own – we are light bearers, symbolizing God's reflected brilliance in the darkness. A lesser light.

Far better to refer to a Christian source about any scientific subject.
Try The moon: the light that rules the night
