How are you able to see things in space that do not give off light?
because light is reflected off stars
Do planets stars and comets shine as a result of reflected light?
Planets and comets shine because of reflected light because they do not produce their own light. Stars are enormous balls of gas that are undergoing fusion which releases a very large amount of energy in the electromagnetic spectrum which includes visible light. So stars shine because they produce their own light and not because they reflect light.

- light reflected from a window- light reflected from a mirror- light reflected from snow
Objects in space that can only be veiwed from earth because of reflected light energy are said to be?
anything but stars
