Best Answer

It's often possible to see non-luminous objects if you illuminate them with a source

of light, such as a flashlight, a candle, or a drop of golden sunshine.

No object absorbs all of the light that falls on it, so some light is always reflected

from it, and some of that reflected light finds its way to your eye.

Once any of the light falling on the object has reflected from it, it's very much

as if the object were self-luminous.
