The correct statement is: Light can travel from Earth to the moon, but not sound.
Light is an electromagnetic wave and can travel through the vacuum of space, while sound requires a medium (like air, water, or solids) to propagate, and thus cannot travel through the vacuum of space between the Earth and the moon.
