Do the moons happen to actually give off light? : The Elder Scrolls Series Discussion

I've read a bit about the moons and whatnot, some people argue that they would in fact give off light but I haven't seen it posted anywhere stating whether or not they would. Could I get some clarification on the subject, or is it simply one of the unknown things that we live with.

As such Masser, which exists as a separate plane, has long since perished; it is Masser's death which has led mortals to perceive it as having both texture and limited size, as well as a reddish hue, all of which are the results of its decay from its former investiture of pure white.

Since we merely perceive the moons and they are technically dead, does that mean that they would still throw off light in a real way?
