No. It shines because it is reflecting light from the sun.
The "white planet" close to Earth is likely the Moon. It appears white in the night sky due to its surface reflecting sunlight.
The moon reflects the sun's light back to Earth. It cannot produce its own light.
The moon never "rises" and "sets" like the sun does. It orbits around planet Earth.... At night, when it shines, that is not the moon's light, that is the sun's light that is reflecting of off the sun!

At night, yes. In the dark, no. Color is just what we see, the amount of light reflecting off of an object. without light color does not exist.
Raccoons have a yellow eye shine at night. This is caused by light reflecting off the retina of the eye.
you can't, since there is no light reflecting off the dark side to allow you to see it.
Is because it appears at night and the sun just gives it light..it does not produce light on its own..
there needs to be no lights Because the sky is dark at night, so the light of the sun, reflecting off a planet, can be seen, just as the light from the stars can be seen against the dark sky. During the day, the light from the planets and stars is obscured by the much brighter light from the sun.
The moon reflects the sun's light back to Earth. It cannot produce its own light.
The Moon is not seen only at night. The Moon can be seen whenever it is over the horizon and can reflect light back to the viewer. Is it often visible in the daytime, but as it is only reflecting light it can be difficult to see against the bright sky.
