Objects emitting light in universe are called stars. They emit not only visible light, but also a much larger spectrum of electromagnetic radiation, depending on the type of stars.

Energy is generated in stars by nuclear reactions causing fusion of light atoms in heavier once. The most numerous stars, like the sun, are fueled by hydrogen: in the star nucleus a reaction fusing two hydrogen atoms in a single helium atom generates a great amount of energy. Such stars emits the maximum power at the wavelength of yellow light, as it is evident if we observe sun with a suitable filter.

Differentiate luminous and non-luminous?

Luminous objects emit their own light, such as the sun or a light bulb, whereas non-luminous objects do not produce light but reflect light from other sources, like the moon or a table. Luminous objects are sources of light, while non-luminous objects only appear visible when light is shone upon them.


How do we see luminous objects?

We can see non-luminous objects because the light reflect off the object and into our eyes that's why at night you can only see a faint out line of the objects around you


Are glow in the dark objects luminous or illuminated?

Luminous.


What are the similarities of luminous and non-luminous?

Luminous and non-luminous objects are both physical entities that occupy space and have mass. However, the key difference lies in their ability to emit light. Luminous objects, such as the sun or a light bulb, generate their own light, while non-luminous objects, like the moon or a book, reflect light from another source. Both types of objects play important roles in our understanding of physics and the natural world.


Are quasars extremely luminous but extremely distant objects?

Yes, quasars are extremely luminous astronomical objects found in the distant universe. They are powered by supermassive black holes at the centers of galaxies, making them some of the brightest and most energetic sources in the cosmos.


Are satellites luminous or non-luminous?

Non-luminous. Objects which produce light of their own or give out or emit their own light are called luminous objects. Objects which do not produce light of their own, on the other hand, are called non-luminous objects. Luminous objects are objects like stars, sun and other celestial bodies which give out their own light. Objects surrounding us are not such light emitting objects. Therefore, we are surrounded by non-luminous objects.


Why and how are various celestial objects luminous and non luminous?

Luminous objects are those which can produce or give out light of their own, while non-luminous objects cannot produce or give out their own light. Some examples of luminous objects would be the sun, stars, fireflies, glowworms and some deep sea fish Some examples of non-luminous objects would be the planets Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars,Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and also Moons.


What is a self-luminous object?

A self-luminous object is an object that emits its own light or electromagnetic radiation, such as the sun, stars, or lightbulbs. Unlike reflective objects that only reflect light from other sources, self-luminous objects generate their own illumination.
