What else can I help you with?
Why can you see the moon so brightly if it doesn't produce its own light?
because it was bright It reflects light from the sun. The sun is very bright. The moon is large and very close to the earth.
What planet is often seen as a bright morning or evening star?
Venus, because it is close to the Sun (and very bright) it is seen either before the Sun at dawn or after the Sun at dusk.
What is that red thing by the moon?
It could be Mars, as it is commonly visible as a bright reddish object in the night sky and can sometimes appear near the Moon. Another possibility is a red planet or star that is particularly bright and close to the Moon from our perspective on Earth.
What is the belt of Orion?
The three bright stars, Alnitak, Alnilam and Mintaka. They are also referred to as Delta, Epsilon and Zeta Orionis. They all lie on or close to the Celestial Equator.
What is the bright planet in the south sky in the UK?
The bright planet in the south sky in the UK is likely to be Jupiter. Jupiter is one of the brightest planets visible from Earth and it can often be seen in the southern part of the sky during the evening hours.

What is a long streaks of bright light caused when a meteroid gets close to the ground as it's burning up?
=ANSWER:==Frictional heating, produced by the meteoroid's energetic collision with atmospheric atoms and molecules, causes its surface to melt and vaporize and also heats the air around it. The result is the luminous phenomenon recognized as a meteor. Popular synonyms for meteors include shooting stars and falling stars. The vast majority of meteoroids that collide with Earth burn up in the upper atmosphere. If a meteoroid survives its fiery plunge through the atmosphere and lands on Earth's surface, the object is known as a meteorite.=
Why do people close one eye in bright sunlight?
People close one eye in bright sunlight to reduce the amount of light entering their eyes and to improve their vision in the bright conditions. This helps to protect the eye from damage and discomfort caused by excessive light exposure.
What is it called when meteoroid gets close to the ground and burns up?
when it is close to the ground, it is a meteor when it hits the ground, it is called a meteorite
How meteor meteoroid meteorite relate?
A meteorOID is a space rock floating around in space. It actually isn't "floating" - it's falling around the Sun in orbit, under the influence of gravity. When the meteorOID comes too close to the Earth, it falls into the Earth's gravity well and hits our atmosphere. The meteoroid heats up with friction, and the compressive heating of running into the wall of air, and begins to glow; it becomes a METEOR, which is the bright streak of light itself. If the space rock survives its fall through the atmosphere and strikes the Earth, the rock - or more likely, the fragments of the rock - that are sitting on the ground are called meteorITES.
How does a meteor apperoch earth?
A meteoroid travels through the solar system. If it comes close enough to the earth then the earth's gravitational attraction will pull it towards the earth. If the meteoroid get pulled into the earth's atmosphere it becomes a meteor, and by this time it is already captured by earth's gravity.
What is a measurable effect caused by close circuit that you can hear?
a measurableeffect caused by close circuit that you can hear
Is there a bright south star?
No. Sigma Octans is a star close to the south pole of the sky, but it is not particularly bright.

What is the icy rock that has bright tail when it is close to the sun?
a comet
