Because it does emit light of its own rather it reflects light from other celestial bodies
Luminous objects create light .A non luminous object does not give off light.For instance, my feet are not luminous.Our sun and the rest of the stars in the universe are luminousNon-luminous objects are the ones who doesn't have its own light like you can say moon,trees, branches,plants, metals mirrors bricks etc.
Strictly speaking, no; stars are incandescent (light resulting from heat) as opposed to luminscent (light resulting from non-thermal based effects). One might, however, safely describe stars as "luminous" in a metaporical sense.
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.
planets, asteroids and the moon
the sun
Because it does emit light of its own rather it reflects light from other celestial bodies
The Moon is NOT "luminous"; it does not shine with its own light. The light we see coming from the Moon is reflected sunlight.On a related note, astronauts on the Moon have always landed during the lunar "day", which lasts for 14 days. But because the dark areas of the near side of the Moon are at the "full Earth", it will probably never be entirely dark. As the Earth is so much larger than the Moon, the reflected earthshine will be 5 to 10 times brighter than moonlight. Astronauts will probably have no trouble working by earthlight.For A+ the answer is The moon does not produce light.By definition, "luminous" means "giving off light". The moon has no light of it's own. It shines by reflected sunlight.
Earth and Moon are Non-Luminous, and a bit reflective. Moon light is sun light that has bounced back from the moon.
Stars are luminous, shine by themseves. Moon isn't, it can only reflect light.
The moon is illuminated by the sun. It is not luminous, since it emits no light of its own, only reflected light.
as we know moon reflects the sun light and moon is a non luminous object we can see the reflection of the sun's light
We could see the deep craters on the luminous moon.
luminous - emits light e.g. the sunnon- luminous - does not emit light though will often reflect light e.g. the moon.
sun (a luminous object) emits its own light and the moon ( a non luminous object ) reflects the light from the sun to earth that's how we can see the moon. The same way gold is a non luminous object.
yes
moon
The summer night was not dark, but filled with the luminous presence of fireflies and the golden full moon.
