Light is part of the electromagnetic spectrum of energy, and is transmitted in the form of photons. The photons are generated by the process of nuclear fusion, which fuses hydrogen into helium and gives off huge amounts of energy as a by-product, within the sun (or any star).
The photons radiate away in all directions, and since they have no mass, only energy, they are not retarded by the sun's gravity. Gravity only affects mass. Also because they are massless, they can travel at the speed of light, and reach the Earth in about nine minutes.
One interesting aspect of photons has to do with Einstein's General Theory of Relativity, which states that time slows down as one approaches the speed of light, and stops when you get there. In other words, Time does not exist for a photon, and this is why they do not weaken or fade even after journeys of millions of light-years. For the photon, no time passed at all!
The majority of photons leaving the Sun's surface are in the visible spectrum, with a peak intensity in the green region. This is why the Sun appears white when viewed from space, as it emits light across all visible wavelengths.
The planet Uranus is 2.7 light hours from the sun.
The sun is a nuclear light source because you can see light, right? The sun gives out light energy so you can see in the daylight.
No, the sun gives light to the moon, but not the stars. the stars give their own light.

No the sun is a sphere, it produces light on all sides
8 and 1/3 minutes
more the surface area exposed to sun light more will be the rate of photosynthesis
You can pour the solution into a tray and set in in sun light and leave it for several minutes.

Yes you should leave the basking light on at night if you have a chilly house the other light acts as the sun in the day and if you leave that on your dragons will never sleep p.s I have one so if have any questions feel free to post anything up and I'll likely be able to give you and answer
the sun only emit light. not the moon. it will reflect the light of the sun.
It is indeed light in all places that are hit by the sun. The sun is a tremendous light source.
Leave a Light On was created in 1989-09.
Leave Your Light On was created in 2005-10.
Sleeping in Light
The question is imfathonable because the sun cannot leave the corona the corona is the center of the sun so the sun therefore cannot leave the sun.
