How are you able to see things in space that do not give off light?

How do the stars shine?
Stars are giant balls of gas and fire.
Does the sun shine in space and why?
OF course... the same reason other stars shine in space, they're stars! They have continuous nuclear reactions that emit TONS of light and energy.
Why are stars visable at night?
Technically the stars are always visible 24 hours a day every day of the week. Stars shine and always continue to shine until they die in a supernova. The stars are not visible during the day because the light of the sun outshines all the light provided by the stars. However, during the night, when the sun is on the other side of the Earth, there is not enough external light to outshine the light of the stars. As a result, the stars are easily visible. However, there are instances that can prevent one from seeing stars even at night. For example, the bright lights of New York City cast a huge glow on the horizon, preventing anyone from seeing the stars past a "light barrier" created on the horizon.
Do moons comets and stars shine as a result of reflected light?
Moons and comets appear to shine because of the light they reflect. Stars produce their own light.
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.
Does Mercury shine with its own light or reflected light from stars?
Mercury shines by reflecting light from just one single star: our Sun.
Are stars reflected light?
No. Stars emit light.
Are stars that shine with predominantly blue light the lowest in temperature?
No. They are the hottest. The coolest stars shine predominantly with red light.
How are you able to see things in space that do not give off light?
because light is reflected off stars
Why do stars seems to twinkle?
because when the light enters the atmosphere it goes in zigzags or long dot zigzags
How do stars such as the sun produce light?
Burns and the sun makes stars light up as the light is reflected........
What process do stars use to shine?
in stars neuclear fussion happens,from which photons are generated which emit light and heat,thats why stars shine.
Why does he compare Juliets eyes to the stars?
Because they shine. And also, the play is full of star-imagery (often related to fate), such as "star-crossed lovers", "then I defy thee stars", "and cut him out in little stars", "earth-treading stars that make dark heaven light" and "inauspicious stars".
Objects in space that can only be veiwed from earth because of reflected light energy are said to be?
anything but stars
WHY stars shine in night time where as not in day time?
Stars shine at nighttime but not in the daytime because it is dark. During the day the sun is bright which blocks the light from the stars. Once the sun is down and the sky is dark, it is easier to see the glimmer.
