"although some nebulas glow or reflect starlight, others absorb light and so are too dark to see."

What else can I help you with?

Do nebulas absorb light?

Nebulas do not absorb light in the same way that solid objects do. Instead, they scatter and reflect light from nearby stars and emit their own light through ionized gases and dust particles. This creates the beautiful and colorful appearance we see in images of nebulas.

What are the dark clouds in space?

The dark clouds in space are called absorption nebulas or dark nebulas. An absorption nebula is a cloud of gas and dust which blocks light from the regions of space behind it. As light from space reaches an absorption nebula it is absorbed by it and does not pass through. Absorption nebulas do not create their own light. It is hard to find an absorption nebula unless it is silhouetted against much brighter region of 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 do nebulas have to do with stars?

Nebulas are clouds of gas and dust in outer space, and they are where stars are born. The gas and dust in a nebula can collapse under gravity to form new stars. Additionally, nebulas are often illuminated by nearby stars, making them appear as colorful and glowing formations in the night sky.
