We receive light from the Sun, the planets, the stars.

This means that light can move through the vacuum of space without any obstacles. This property of light allows it to travel vast distances from its source, such as from stars to telescopes on Earth.
Yes, light can travel through outer space because it does not require a medium to propagate. In the vacuum of space, light can travel almost undisturbed for long distances until it interacts with matter.
Sound requires a medium, such as air, water, or solid surfaces, to travel through. In outer space, there is no medium for sound waves to travel through, so sound cannot propagate in the vacuum of space.
In outer space, there is no medium for sound waves to travel through like air or water. Since sound requires a medium to propagate, it cannot travel through the vacuum of space. This makes space totally silent.
Light is able to travel through outer space because it does not require a medium to propagate, unlike sound which relies on particles to transmit vibrations. In the vacuum of space, there are no particles for sound waves to transfer energy through, so sound cannot travel.
No, a concussive blast wave requires a medium, such as air or water, to travel through. In the vacuum of outer space, there is no medium for the wave to propagate, so it would not travel through outer space.

We can see stars.
Sound requires a medium, such as air, water, or solid surfaces, to travel through. In outer space, there is no medium for sound waves to travel through, so sound cannot propagate in the vacuum of space.
yes
Light can travel through various mediums, including air, water, glass, and some transparent plastics. Light travels fastest through a vacuum, such as outer space, where there are no particles to slow it down.
Light can travel through space because it is made up of electromagnetic waves that do not require a medium to propagate. Sound, on the other hand, is a mechanical wave that needs a medium, such as air, water, or a solid, to travel through. Since space is a vacuum with no medium, sound cannot travel through it.
Light can travel through a vacuum, which means it does not require a medium to propagate. This is explained by the wave-particle duality of light. While light behaves as a wave and doesn't need a medium, it can also be understood as a stream of particles called photons.
Light can travel through a vacuum, such as outer space, where sound cannot travel as it requires a medium like air, water, or a solid to propagate. Light can also travel through transparent materials like glass or air, while sound is mostly blocked or absorbed by these materials.
Light can travel through space. All the light that we get on the earth's surface; usually travels from the sun through space before it can reach here.
Sound and Light can travel through space.
Light can travel through any parts of space, there is no part that it is excluded from.
Light waves can travel through a vacuum (such as outer space), air, water, glass, and other transparent materials. Light waves can also travel through some opaque materials, but they may get absorbed or scattered in the process, reducing their intensity.
