Dark dust clouds in space can absorb and scatter radiation from stars, blocking their light from reaching us. They can also absorb ultraviolet and visible light, heating up and re-emitting this energy as infrared radiation. This dust can also serve as the building blocks for new stars and planets.

Name the different types of nebulae?
The different types of nebulae include emission nebulae, reflection nebulae, and dark nebulae. Emission nebulae are clouds of gas and dust that emit light, reflection nebulae reflect light from nearby stars, and dark nebulae are dense clouds of dust that block the light from behind them.
What is difference between dark nebulae and bright nebulae?
Bright nebula are clouds of gas and dust that shine by reflected starlight. Dark nebula are clouds of dust and colder gas that can be seen by their silhouette against brighter objects behind them in the line of sight.
How are dark nebulae formed?
Dark nebulae are formed when dense interstellar clouds of gas and dust block the light from background stars, creating a visible dark patch against the bright emission nebulae behind them. Gravitational forces can cause these clouds to collapse and form new stars within them over time.
What are stars that begin their lives as clouds of dust and gas called?
"NEBULAE" Because A diffuse mass of interstellar dust or gas or both, visible as luminous patches or areas of darkness depending on the way the mass absorbs or reflects incident radiation.;it is a clouds of gas and dust that form a star..........
What is the difference between a dark reflecting nebula and light relfecting nebula?
A nebula is a region of interstellar gas and dust. Dark nebulae such as the Horsehead Nebula are so dense that they block light from other sources, such as background emission nebulae, reflection nebulae, or other stars. Other types of nebulae do reflect light. Emission nebulae are clouds of ionized gas that allow red, blue, and violet light through. Generally, these nebulae appear reddish. Reflection nebulae are clouds of dust that simply reflect light from nearby stars. The dust particles of reflection nebulae usually only scatter blue light, so the appearance is blue.
Are nimbostatus clouds dark?
yes because there are alot of dust particals in it
What are nebulaes made of?
Nebulae are made of clouds of hydrogen and other elements or clouds of dust (dark nebulae)
Do dark dust clouds radiate mainly in the ultraviolet part of the electromagnetic spectrum?
Dark dust clouds primarily absorb and scatter visible light, hence appearing dark to us. They do not radiate strongly in the ultraviolet part of the electromagnetic spectrum.
Why are dark dust clouds largely misnamed?
Dark dust clouds are largely misnamed because they are not actually darker in color, but instead block the light from stars behind them, giving the appearance of darkness. These clouds are composed of gas, dust, and other materials that can obscure the light from stars and other celestial objects. The term "dark" refers more to their ability to block light rather than their actual color.
How does dust in the air interact with water vapor in the air?
Dust particles can serve as nuclei for water vapor to condense onto, forming cloud droplets. This interaction can lead to the formation of clouds, precipitation, and affects the processes of rain and snow formation. Dust in the air can also influence the properties of clouds, such as their brightness and lifespan.
Why is the Rho Ophiuchi cloud dark?
It's probably due to backlit dust clouds or grains that block starlight and so appear dark.
Why does dust stick to clouds?
Dust sticks to clouds, because of electricity.
How are stars dust and gas similar to dark matter?
The only similarity we know of is that they all seem to interact with gravity. Aside from that, scientists do not know what dark matter is.
Name the different types of nebulae?
The different types of nebulae include emission nebulae, reflection nebulae, and dark nebulae. Emission nebulae are clouds of gas and dust that emit light, reflection nebulae reflect light from nearby stars, and dark nebulae are dense clouds of dust that block the light from behind them.
What best describes the composition of a nebula as the Crab Nebula?
clouds of dust and gas
What is difference between dark nebulae and bright nebulae?
Bright nebula are clouds of gas and dust that shine by reflected starlight. Dark nebula are clouds of dust and colder gas that can be seen by their silhouette against brighter objects behind them in the line of sight.
What are some types of martian clouds?
they could be dust clouds.
