Why do stars shine at night while the sun shine at daytime?
stars do shine in morning but when compared to sun's shining their shine is nothing that's why we are not able to see stars in morning
Do most stars shine?
all stars shine, its just a matter or whether or not we can see them
Why do stars shine and why are they so small?
Stars shine because they are extremely hot with surface temperatures of thousands to tens of thousands of degrees. They are heated by a process called nuclear fusion, in which hydrogen atoms fuse together for form helium, releasing vast amounts of energy. The stars only appear small because they are unimaginably far away. They are, in reality, enormous, far larger than Earth. The stars are suns similar to our own, some even bigger and brighter, only appearing as tiny specks of light due to their great distance.
Do stars shine because of reflected light?
No, Stars generate light and heat through nuclear fusion. The moon reflects light
How do stars begin to shine?
After stars are created in nebulae with dust and gas, they can begin the process of fusing hydrogen to make helium. Voila!, one star coming up!
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.
What are characteristic of planets?
planets do not shine with their own energy but shine because of energy of stars. they revolve around stars
How many stars are there and why they shine?
Innumerable stars are there in the space. Our sun is also a star. Almost all stars shine because of fusion of hydrogen nuclei.
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.
Why do stars shine at night while the sun shine at daytime?

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.
Is stars shining an example of s continuous variable?
No, it is a continuous process but not a continuous variable. The magnitude of star-shine, across all stars is a continuous variable. The magnitude of a star's shine over time is a continuous variable.
Do most stars shine?
all stars shine, its just a matter or whether or not we can see them
When was The Stars Shine Down created?
The Stars Shine Down was created in 1992-10.
How many pages does The Stars Shine Down have?
The Stars Shine Down has 400 pages.
Why do stars seems to twinkle?
because when the light enters the atmosphere it goes in zigzags or long dot zigzags
