A small update here! Starting today the official repository of Luna is here: https://github.com/luna . You will not find anything available for the public at the moment, but I wanted to let you know that the original owner of that repository has agreed to transfer it for our purposes ( thank you once again! :) ). You can still find his language here: https://github.com/tj/luna

I don't think so. It looks like haskell.

Not going to argue, it looked like Python with some continuation syntax inspired by others to me. I only have data on my perception until we all get neural implants to argue cyberneticly. ;)
Doesn't matter.

Looks like elements of both, with some Erlang concepts as well.

I can very precisely answer the question as one of Luna designers. Luna's textual syntax is strongly influenced by Python and Ruby, because we think that it is one of the most widely understandable and easy to use syntax out there at the moment - just like wantreprenr007 said.
The concepts in Luna were influenced mainly by Haskell, Idris, Erlang and other functional languages.
Edit: Not to be confused with another Luna Language: https://github.com/luna/luna
