How do you explain the floodlit lunar landscape if the sun, the source
of the floodlight, is obscured by the earth?

I donno what you are looking at but when I follow the link I get an image
entitled " Solar Eclipse from the Moon Illustration Credit & Copyright:
Hana Gartstein" which is a view of the earth from the moon during a (from
out POV) lunar eclipse.

Also look at the buggy and rock shadows which indicate a light source
behind and to the left of the camera.

No buggy or rocks in view...
