Does Uranus have bright or dim sunlight?

Answer 1

Venus is brighter than any other object in space exept for the moon and sun.

Venus's apparent magnitude ranges from -4.6 to -3.8, while the moon ranges from -2.5 to -12.9, while the Sun is -26.74. (The more negative, the brighter.)

Answer 2

Sunlight on Mars is about half as bright as on Earth, because of the longer distance from the Sun. However, Mars has very little atmosphere, and so the dimming effects of air and clouds are absent.

The net effect is that sunlight on Mars would appear to be to astronauts to be about the same as on Earth.

Answer 3

If you were able to stand on the surface of Venus and look around, you would not see the Sun at all. Venus is completely surrounded with thick clouds .

However, the atmosphere of Venus is also poisonous, corrosive, and incredibly hot, so you wouldn't really want to look around there anyway.

Answer 4

Light, like gravity, is reduced by the reciprocal of the square of the distance. As Jupiter is 3 astronomical units from the sun (3 times earth's distance), solar radiation is reduced by a factor of 1/3², or 1/9th. So Jupiter receives roughly 10% of the sunlight earth receives, per unit area.

Jupiter is much bigger than the earth, so it captures more total sunlight. But the sun from a spacecraft in orbit around Jupiter, or from the surface of one of Jupiter's many moons, would appear nearly 10 times dimmer than it does from earth.

Answer 5

Of itself no - it does not emit any visible light of its own. However, it is a very large planet and does therefore reflect a lot of sunlight back to Earth and therefore appears as a bright object in Earth's skies.

Answer 6

Everything is relative. The sunlight reaching Jupiter is dimmer than that which reaches the earth because it is further away.

Answer 7

Uranus has very dim sunlight. The planet does not have bright sunlight because of its extreme distance from the sun.

Answer 8

Bright.

Because you can sometimes see it in the night sky.

Answer 9

Very bright at the cloud tops; still fairly bright at the surface.

The clouds cover the planet and little light shines through. most light is above the clouds

Answer 10

the planet Neptune gets dim sunlight
