Comets do not emit their own light; instead, they reflect sunlight. When a comet approaches the Sun, the heat causes its icy nucleus to sublimate, releasing gas and dust that form a glowing coma and tail. This process makes the comet visible from Earth, but the light we see is primarily due to sunlight reflecting off the comet's material.
The moon is a sphere that does not give off light of it's own. Rather, moonlight is caused by the sun's reflection off the moon.
No. The light we see from comets is reflected sunlight. Comets are composed of ice and dust, and do not give off any radiation, visible or otherwise. Because of their high ice content, and the water vapor they trail as they travel toward the sun, they are highly reflective.
The only thing in our solar system that gives off light of its own is the sun.
No, asteroids do not give off their own light. They reflect light from the Sun, which is why they are visible in the night sky. Some asteroids may have a faint glow due to heat emitted from their surface.
No, the sun gives light to the moon, but not the stars. the stars give their own light.
A Planet does not give off light of its own.
Planets dont give off light therefore all planets dont give off its own light

No, most objects do not give off their own light. Objects either reflect light from a light source or emit light when they are heated to a high temperature.
Moons and comets appear to shine because of the light they reflect. Stars produce their own light.
A planet.Planets do not generate their own light; they reflect the light of the Sun.
The moon does not give off its own light. Instead, it reflects light from the sun. This is why the moon appears bright in the night sky.
Planets and comets shine because of reflected light because they do not produce their own light. Stars are enormous balls of gas that are undergoing fusion which releases a very large amount of energy in the electromagnetic spectrum which includes visible light. So stars shine because they produce their own light and not because they reflect light.

no Bkuz comets arnt used as mirrors. Ignore that. Yes, comets shine due to reflected light because they do not produce their own light, much as our moon reflects light from the sun causing it to shine in the sky.
