The moon is super important because it shines during the night when it's dark, while the sun is only ever in the sky during the day when it's bright outside, so it's much less important.

I think tides might be important too

Not to me they're not, I think we should stop giving tides so much attention. Ocean goes up, ocean goes down, blah blah blah, such a neat trick. Ridiculous.
