The sun and stars are light sources bacause of the energy they produce. The energy comes from a special process called nuclear fusion. This happens when two like-charged (either two negative or two positive) hydrogen atoms fuse together, and they change forms. This releases helium atoms, a neutron, and energy. The name 'Nuclear Fusion" comes from the words Nuclei and Fusion. Nuclei is like the brain of the cell. Atoms are cells, and they are actually made up of many cells. The root word of Fusion is fuse. Fuse means to bring together, or become one. Hope this helps!
Planets and comets shine because of reflected light because they do not produce their own light. Stars are enormous balls of gas that are undergoing fusion which releases a very large amount of energy in the electromagnetic spectrum which includes visible light. So stars shine because they produce their own light and not because they reflect light.
It does not have visible light of its own, that lite is provided by the shine of the stars in it and or around it.
Moons and comets appear to shine because of the light they reflect. Stars produce their own light.
Stars generate and radiate their own light. This is pretty obvious when you think about the star that's closest to us ... the sun.
Saturn does not have any stars. It is a planet within our solar system and does not produce its own light like stars do.
No, the sun gives light to the moon, but not the stars. the stars give their own light.
No. The stars make their own light, but the planets only relect light from the sun.

Stars do not reflect light from the Moon or the Sun. Stars emit their own light due to nuclear fusion reactions happening in their cores. The light we see from stars is the result of this emission, not reflection.
Planets reflect light from the sun. Stars emit their own light.
Yes
Yes, they do.
No. The stars are distant suns that emit their own light.
