Less reflection, more absorbtion. More absorbtion, greater efficiency.

By definition, black is the absence of light and color. In the real world, all objects with the possible exception of black holes reflect some light, but objects that appear black are absorbing, rather than reflecting, most wavelengths (colors) of visible light.
A mirror reflects light by causing photons to bounce off its smooth surface at an angle equal to the angle of incidence. In pitch black darkness, where there is no light to reflect off a surface, it is not possible to have a reflection in the traditional sense. However, some surfaces can reflect a limited amount of light even in very low light conditions due to their material properties.
The dark areas on the moon that are smooth and reflect little light are called maria. They are large basaltic plains formed by ancient volcanic activity on the moon's surface.
Telescope reflect light
I think a regular mirror is a mirror that does not reflect all the light from a source, and actually soaks some light in. 100% mirrors reflect 100% of the light (theoretically not possible)
Colours appear the way they are because of light. Objects such as this bus reflect colours from light..thats why most things apear black in the dark because there is little or no light to reflect off of. Yellow objects reflect yellow while absorbing remaining colours
Black objects absorb most of the light that falls on them, so they do not reflect any specific color. Instead, they appear black because they reflect very little light that is visible to the human eye.
White reflects light better than black. White objects reflect most of the light that strikes them, while black objects absorb most of the light and reflect very little, making them appear dark.
Mirrors reflect whether there is anything to reflect at the minute. Beside light they can also reflect heat radiation.
Dark objects absorb light because they reflect little to no light and instead convert it into other forms of energy, such as heat. This absorption prevents the light from passing through the object and makes it appear dark to our eyes.
