When a space ship returns to earth it is glowing red and hot why is that?
It is glowing red hot because of the friction created between the space shuttle and the surrounding air.
What is a hot ball of glowing gasses in space called?
A star
What is the dramatic eruption on the sun that produces x-rays and hurls charged particles into space at nearly the speed of light?
Solar flares - which produce the solar 'wind'
Light from the sun travels through space to the earths atmosphere What will light waves do when they move from empty space into matter made up of different gases?
They will slow down slightly compared to their speed in vacuum, they will bend slightly as they enter the atmosphere, and they will follow a path through it that continues to curve slightly.
What keeps gases from escaping into outer space?
Gravity
What are glowing gases that shoot into space?
glowing is energy for the star so that is why they have light.
In space is it dark?
Yes! space is pitch black! however, because of the light of the stars,and especially the sun..... space is really glowing with light . but it is still dark in space .
What are the glowing clouds in space?
The glowing clouds that you see in pictures from space are called emission nebulas. A emission nebula is a cloud of hot, glowing cloud of gas and dust in space. These nebulas absorb the light of nearby stars and reach very high temperatures. The high temperature causes them to glow. Emission nebulas are often found in regions of space where new stars are forming.
What are leftover debris from the formation of the solar system They are large bodies of tiny particles and glowing gases?
Meteoroids are little chunks of rock and debris in space which eventually become meteors.
Which object in space produces rather than reflects light?
All stars produce light rather than reflecting light.
Light from the sun travels through space to earth's atmosphere. What will light waves do when they move from an empty space into matter made up of different gases?
slow down and refract

When light from a star passes though the star's outer gases what happens to some of the light?
some of the light is refracted,some of it is absorbed while the rest is scattered into the space
Which planets gases escape into space?
Mercury's gases escaped into space once
Why did Earth's early atmosphere lose its hydrogen and helium gases?
The mass of the Earth provides insufficient gravitational attraction to prevent these very light gases from escaping into space.
