Anaxagoras

 * That Anaxagoras believed that the astronomical bodies were split from the Earth is already mentioned in the article, two sentences after the one you are editing.
 * The article at Encyclopedia.com that you are quoting directly says: "Of these, unquestionably the most spectacular was his discovery that the moon does not shine by its own light."

The current text of the article is:
 * He attempted to give a scientific account of eclipses, meteors, rainbows, and the sun, which he described as a mass of blazing metal, larger than the Peloponnese. He was the first to explain that the moon shines due to reflected light from the sun. He also said that the moon had mountains and believed that it was inhabited. The heavenly bodies, he asserted, were masses of stone torn from the earth and ignited by rapid rotation. He explained that, though both sun and the stars were fiery stones, we do not feel the heat of the stars because of their enormous distance from earth. He thought that the earth is flat and floats supported by 'strong' air under it and disturbances in this air sometimes causes earthquakes.
