Its reflected sun light - unlike the stars which generate their own light.
The light we see from the planets is sunlight that has been reflected.
Mercury
Some planets can be seen from the earth at certain times. Volcanoes in some planets erupt and the ash surrounds the gas clouds so it seems darker to us. But at different times of year we can see the planets brighter. That is because because of the sun's light. Planets do not have their own light. So they reflect the light of the sun, the big ball of fire.
They reflect light from the Sun.
we get the light from the sun
No, the sun shines light and they reflect it.
Planets do not emit their own light; instead, they reflect light from the Sun. This reflected sunlight allows us to see planets shining in the night sky. The amount of light reflected depends on the planet's surface composition and atmosphere.
In general, planets don't make their own light. Rather, they reflect the light of the sun. It is possible to see lightning in the atmospheres of some planets, but that probably doesn't count.
Yes, scientists use telescopes and space probes to analyze the composition of different planets. By studying the light that reaches us from these planets, scientists can determine the elements present in their atmosphere and surface materials.
The reason you can see planets and stars at night is that their light is faint and the brightness of the sun obscures them during the day. At night, when the sun is not visible, the fainter light from the planets and stars can more readily be seen.
The ones you can see, you see them because the Sun's light reflects off them.
the reason you can see the planets in our solar system is because, they reflect the suns light off of their atmosphere or sufrace.
