Yes! The Earth reflects more than half on the sun's light.

What planets produce their own light?

No, planets don't give off light, stars did.


Do planets emit light or reflect light?

Planets do not emit their own light; instead, they reflect light from the Sun. This reflected sunlight allows us to see planets shining in the night sky. The amount of light reflected depends on the planet's surface composition and atmosphere.


Do planets reflect light from the moon and the sun?

Yes, planets reflect light from both the Sun and the Moon. Planets reflect sunlight because they do not have their own light source. The light reflected from the Moon is actually sunlight that has been reflected off the Moon's surface.


Which planet emits or reflects light?

All planets in the solar system reflect light from the Sun at night; remember they rotate on their axis and so during their night (or our night, for that matter) one side of a planet will always be facing the sun. Whether they're visible from an observer on Earth during our night is a different question - the inner planets, by virtue of the fact they're closer to the Sun, could be seen only in favorable conditions near sunset or sunrise (since they couldn't appear more distant than a narrow angle away from the sun in the sky, being inside Earth's orbit).


Why do planets like Venus look so bright in the night sky if they do not emit light?

there are certain times when those planets... like venus..... are in an alignment with the sun and the sun's light... letting those planets REFLECT the same light the stars do...... the sun's light...... without the sun's light..... the stars too would be dark ^^
