[MasherUpper] MoonLIT/SunLIT

tl;dr - LITS + Moon or Sun
Shade four cells in each region to form a tetromino. All shaded cells must form a single orthogonally connected region with no 2x2 squares of shaded cells. A tetromino may not share an edge with another tetromino of the same kind (including rotation and mirroring).
In each bordered region, you must either shade all Moon cells, or shade all Sun cells. The region of shaded cells must be traversable as a loop that passes through each bordered region once, without visiting two consecutive regions where the Moons or the Suns are shaded in both of them. Not all shaded cells must be on the looping path, but the looping path must exclusively be on shaded cells.

Solution code: Row 4, then Row 8, with no spaces. Use 0 for unshaded, 1 for shaded.

Easy, but very enjoyable.

Added clarification regarding the path and shaded cells

@kjholt The looping path does not need to visit every shaded cell, but cannot visit unshaded cells.

Thank you for the puzzle - I think it is 1 star.

Just to clarify: does the loop need to visit every shaded cell?
