What is diffraction ?

Diffraction is a phenomena in which light bends around the corners of obstacle in its path. This happens when the size of the obstacle is comparable to the wavelength of the light.

What is light?

Light, often known as visible light, is electromagnetic radiation that falls within the region of the electromagnetic spectrum which the human eye can perceive.

What is moon?

Moon can be considered as natural satellite. Moon does not have its own light. It reflects the sun-light which is received by us. The light after reflection from the surface of the moon passes through the atmosphere of Earth wherein it gets scattered by the molecules of the gases present in the earths atmosphere. This gives a fuzzy glow around a full moon.
