Stars.
Some living organisms (fireflys, etc)
Sorry - I thought that was "what"
As for why - 1) if an object's temperature gets high enough then the escaping (heat) energy "glows" ... thus stars, volcanoes, etc.
2) some biochemical reactions produce a glow (with little or no heat) ...
the why bother varies, to hunt (like a flashlight), to lure (act as bait), to sexually attract a mate.
planets, moon,etc do not emit light on their own.
Only a small fraction of space objects produce their own light. The primary objects that do are stars, which generate light through nuclear fusion in their cores. Other celestial bodies like planets and moons do not emit their own light but reflect the light of stars. Additionally, some phenomena like supernovae and certain types of nebulae can produce their own light temporarily.
Objects that do not produce their own light are known as non-luminous objects. They are visible because they reflect light from other sources, such as the sun or artificial lights. Examples include the moon, planets, and everyday items like furniture or clothing. These objects rely on external light sources to be seen.
Moon
An object that does not give its own light is a planet, such as Earth. Instead of emitting light, planets reflect sunlight that they receive from stars. This is in contrast to objects like stars, which generate their own light through nuclear fusion. Other examples of non-luminous objects include moons, asteroids, and comets.
No, most objects do not give off their own light. Objects either reflect light from a light source or emit light when they are heated to a high temperature.

Luminous
Non-luminous. Objects which produce light of their own or give out or emit their own light are called luminous objects. Objects which do not produce light of their own, on the other hand, are called non-luminous objects. Luminous objects are objects like stars, sun and other celestial bodies which give out their own light. Objects surrounding us are not such light emitting objects. Therefore, we are surrounded by non-luminous objects.
False. We can see objects that reflect light from sources like the sun or artificial light sources, even if they don't emit their own light.
Objects that produce or emit light are called luminous objects. These objects generate their own light through a process such as incandescence or bioluminescence. Examples include the sun, light bulbs, and fireflies.

Moon
No. Most objects you see need to be shined on by a source of light, otherwise you don't see them.
