They are basically the same computer.
The Luna has a heart rate monitor, you just have to purchase it seperatly as also with the predictive multi gas, but in Europe it comes as standard now.(like mine)
The Luna also has PDIS (Profile dependant intermediate stops) which can be turned on or off depending on how you want the computer set up. It basically gives you a deep stop based on remaining air needed to carry out your safe accent with your predetermined saftey air remaining.

The Sol can also monitor 2 other Transmitters (3 total), Great for Familys or Students. And the Luna Only sees 1 Transmitter. Personally I prefer the Black trim of the Luna over the more Goldish look of the Sol.

If you go to the Scubapro/Uwatec site and click on the Uwatec computers you will see a compare option. It says "compare computers" and it is right under the banner that reads "Computers Swiss Design Engineering". Once you click that, you can then add the computers to compare and then click the same link that said "compare computers" which now says "compare".
The differences in the two charts are:
PMG : Std on Sol and Optional on Luna
HR Monitor: Std on Sol and Optional on Luna
Workload : difference is no heart rate on Luna unless you get optional HR monitor.
Then there is a features list which is not as easy to compare.
Someone above said that the Luna has PDIS as a difference, but even though it is not listed, the SOL does have it. It might have been an upgrade firmware as the instructions for PDIS are in a separate manual with the SOL.
The color on my SOL is more of a platinum or brushed aluminum.
There is a firmware 1.5 for the SOL and Terra: "This new release of the Galileo firmware updates Galileo SOL and Galileo TERRA with the latest features developed by UWATEC. (The 1.5 firmware is already installed on Galileo LUNA.) The new 1.5 firmware allows the user to activate the APNEA* mode and benefit from the updated Profile Dependent Intermediate Stops (PDIS). "
