You name it. Within the solar system, the sun is the onlyobject that produces its own light.
There's no other object in the solar system that we can see unless the sun is shining on it.

Does the earth reflect the light of the sun like the moon does?
Yes. The sun is the only object in the solar system that shines with its own light. If anything else in the solar system is visible, it's only because the big flashlight in the center is shining on it.
Why only using green light would the plants look droopy?
Chlorophyll in plants does not absorb green light as they reflect this color. That is why plants are, generally, green as they reflect green light and absorb other wavelengths of light.
What types of light colours that plant can photosynthesis?
Plants are green because they reflect green light more than any other part of the color spectrum, therefore if a plant is only exposed to green light it will reflect.
What is the relationship between visible light spectrum and your sight?
Sight can only be possible in the presence of light. To be able to see an object, we either see the light which it emits, if it is a luminescent object, or the light which reflects off it, if it is a non luminescent surface.
Is an asteroid a reflector or shiner?
Yes, but not a really good one like a mirror is. They reflect a little bit of light, and reflect quite a bit of radar radio waves.
Does Neptune or its moons give off light?
Planets and Moons only reflect light, they do not 'give off light'.
Why is a planet a non luminous object?
Planets are not hot enough to emit their own light. They only reflect light.
What colour will a green object be if only blue light was shone on it?
Black, because the blue light would be absorbed into the object's pigment and as there is no green light to reflect, the object would appear black.
Does the sun or the moon give out more light?
Only the Sun emits light, the Moon only reflect 7% of the light it receives.
Does red glass only reflect and transmit red light waves?
No, red glass does not only reflect and transmit red light waves. It actually transmits the white light waves through the red glass creating a red glow. A transparent object generally transmits light while a solid object reflects light.
What colour will a white object appear if only red light was shone on it?
Red. The colour of an object is determined by the wavelengths of light it reflects and absorbs, and a white object is one that reflects light across the visible spectrum. If only red light shines on it, it will reflect that light. In contrast, a black object appears black because it doesn't reflect any visible wavelengths, so would still appear black. Any object that doesn't reflect the wavelength of light you're using (eg blue objects) would also appear black because it isn't reflecting any light.
How do you see the book on your tablecan you see the book in absolute darkness?
-- You "see" only when light enters your eye. -- You 'see' an object only when light from that object enters your eye. -- If the object itself doesn't generate light, then light from some other source must illuminate the object, and some of that light must reflect from the object to your eye. -- In absolute darkness, there is no light, and you do not 'see'.
What color object would reflect more light?
White, since we can only see the color when all of the light hitting it is reflected.
Why do red object's look black in blue light?
Red and blue are primary colours therefore they do not contain any other colour. When a blue light is shone onto a red object, all the blue light is absorbed by the red object, and as no red light is being shone for the red object to reflect, no light will be reflected from it and it will appear to be black. It is important to remember that physical colours will only reflect it's light colour equivalent. All other colours are absorbed. So red will reflect red, green will reflect green, and red will absorb green and so on.
What is true about an object that looks red?
For an object to appear red, it must reflect only red light. All other colors are absorbed.
What colour is a white object under red light?
The white object will look red because the white surface reflects all colors and since only a red light is used it will only reflect red.
What colour would a red object seem to look like if you only shined green light on it?
The object would be black, because red cannot reflect green light so no colour is reflected of the object.
