because its a solid
Light cannot travel through the Earth because it is an opaque material. When light encounters an opaque object, like the Earth, it is either absorbed or reflected by the molecules in the material, preventing it from passing through.
Light from the sun travels to Earth through the vacuum of space as electromagnetic radiation. This radiation consists of photons, which are particles of light that travel in straight lines at the speed of light. The light reaches Earth in about 8 minutes and 20 seconds.
Squid ink and blood are a couple that come to mind.
Light will not travel through an opaque sponge.
Light waves do not require a medium through which to travel. They will travel (propagate) perfectly well in a vacuum. Otherwise, light would not pass through the vacuum of space. It would be very dark here on earth as the light from the sun, moon and stars could not reach Earth through the vacuum of space.

It is because light can travel through space that Earth can get sunlight. Without sunlight life on Earth could not exist.
If light rays did not travel through space there would be no way for them to reach Earth.
Light can travel through space. All the light that we get on the earth's surface; usually travels from the sun through space before it can reach here.
Of course it travels.Then how do you expect light to reach the earth from he sun!
Electromagnetic radiation... i.e., light. Electromagnetic Waves A+
Light from the sun travels to Earth through the vacuum of space as electromagnetic radiation. This radiation consists of photons, which are particles of light that travel in straight lines at the speed of light. The light reaches Earth in about 8 minutes and 20 seconds.
Light can travel through outer space because it propagates as electromagnetic waves, which do not require a medium to travel through. This means that light can move through the vacuum of space without any obstacles. This property of light allows it to travel vast distances from its source, such as from stars to telescopes on Earth.
Opaque
Yes! that's how light from the sun gets to the Earth. Electromagnetic do not require a medium to travel through, they can even travel through a complete vacuum.

Energy from the sun reaches the Earth through electromagnetic radiation, primarily in the form of visible light. This light travels through the vacuum of space and reaches the Earth's atmosphere, where it is absorbed and converted into heat energy.
