The moon and planets shine by what sunlight?
The moon shines by reflecting sunlight, just like any other object in the solar system. Planets shine by reflecting sunlight or producing their own light, such as in the case of Venus, which has a thick atmosphere that reflects sunlight.
Why do the planets and the moon shine so brightly if they do not produce light?
Planets and moons do not produce their own light. They shine brightly because they reflect sunlight. The reflection of sunlight off their surfaces is what makes them visible and appear to shine in the night sky.
Why can the moon shine?
The moon shines because it reflects light from the sun. Sunlight hits the surface of the moon, and the reflective properties of the moon's surface cause it to shine and appear bright in our night sky.
Why do planets and the moons shine so brightly if they do not produce light?
The light comes from the reflection of the suns light off their surface. It may seem like there is not enough light to make them shine so much, but compared to the night sky, there is enough reflected light off their surfaces for us to see detail in the moon and planets.
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.
Why moon and planets shine and produce light?
The moon and planets reflect sunlight, they do not produce light.

Why is it possible for us to see the planets?
Sunlight hitting the planets' surface reflex back to earth. Just like you can see the moon shine at night
Why can the moon shine?
The moon shines because it reflects light from the sun. Sunlight hits the surface of the moon, and the reflective properties of the moon's surface cause it to shine and appear bright in our night sky.
Why don't the moon shine through a solar eclipse?
The moon only apears to shine because it reflects sunlight from its surface. During a solar eclipse the moon passes between the Sun and the Earth so the sunlight reflects off the surface of the moon which is not visible from Earth.

Why do the moon and planets shine?
Mars is called "the red planet" because of its high iron content. It may appear blue if visible in the night sky because of our atmosphere filtering out some wavelengths of the sun's light (which reflects off of Mars's surface, and into your eyes).
Why do some planets seem to give out light?
Those who have been into outer space have sent back/brought pack pictures of the Earth from space and from the Moon. We can clearly see the waters of the oceans and the clouds..... when the Sun is shining on them. The same goes for the Moon - we can see its features when the Sun is shining on it. At times when the Moon is at a certain angle we can see it all, but as it moves through its orbit we see less of it, because what we are actually seeing is the bit the sun doesn't shine on. So now, we've got Earth visible from space when the sun shines on it, and the Moon visible from here when the sun shines of it.... are you seeing a constant in here? The sun is what makes the Moon "shine" and it is what makes Earth's major features clearly visible. If you were to get further away from the Earth, the Sun's light would make us appear to 'shine' also. The "shine" of the planets is due to the fact that we are seeing them against the very dark background of space, and we cannot distinguish features, we just see the brightness of their faces as illuminated by the Sun.
Why does the moon shine white?
The moon shines white because it reflects sunlight. The sun's light hits the moon's surface and bounces off, making it appear bright in the night sky.
What are the other planets that shine for the same reasons as the moon?
SUN A DOY for light
