What is the brightest moon?
Moons don't produce light.
What is the brightest moon called?
Moons don't produce light.
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.
What is a body in space that does not produce light and revolve around 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.
Do Planets and their moons emit light?
No. Planets and moons reflect light.
Does Neptune or its moons give off light?
Planets and Moons only reflect light, they do not 'give off light'.
How do stars reflect light of planets and moons?
They don't. It's the planets and moons that reflect the light of stars.
Do lunar moons and can lunar moons have a rainbow at night?
if you have enough light and water
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.
If a planet has 62 moons would it be dark or light?
it depends if its near a sun. remember, MOONS AND PLANETS ARE NOT LIGHT SOURCES. they simply reflect the suns light. therefore, if they are not near enough to a sun, the moons would be dark, as would the planet, cos there is hardly any light to reflect. (oh and there is no known planet with 62 moons.)
