No, stars and moons are two different astronomical bodies. Stars are massive bodies that emit light and produce energy through nuclear fusion, while moons are natural satellites that orbit planets. Moons do not produce their own light but reflect light from the Sun.

Planets, planetesimals, moons, comets, asteroids, and space dust all orbit the Sun and none produce any light.


Small bodies revolving around planets which do not produce light?

They're considered moons. If I'm mistaking, no moons create their own light. The Sun's rays reflect off of the "small revolving body" surface and create the light we see.


Why do plants and the moons shine so brightly if they do not produce light?

It is because of the Sun giving light off on to the moon and the moon reflecting the light onto the plants.

How many space objects produce their own light?

Only a small fraction of space objects produce their own light. The primary objects that do are stars, which generate light through nuclear fusion in their cores. Other celestial bodies like planets and moons do not emit their own light but reflect the light of stars. Additionally, some phenomena like supernovae and certain types of nebulae can produce their own light temporarily.

When light comes from the sun does it shine straight on Jupiter and its moons or does it shine on Jupiter then from there the light reflects to Jupiter's moons?

It shines directly on both Jupiter and its moons. There is no reason it shouldn't, as, other than periodic eclipses from Jupiter, nothing blocks the sunlight from reaching those moons. The moons do get some reflected light from Jupiter as well, just as Earth gets some light from our moon.
