Luminous refers to something that emits light on its own, like the sun or a light bulb. Reflect means to bounce back light, sound, or heat off a surface, like a mirror reflecting an image.
Asteroids are not luminous like stars. They do not produce their own light but instead reflect light from the Sun. When they are illuminated by sunlight, asteroids can sometimes appear bright in the night sky.
Luminous sources of light are objects that emit light due to their own energy, like the sun or a light bulb. Non-luminous sources of light are objects that reflect light from luminous sources without emitting light themselves, like the moon or a mirror.
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.
Kitchen foil is not luminous on its own, meaning it does not emit light. However, it can reflect light and appear to be shiny or reflective depending on the lighting conditions.
ANSWER:Luminous could also mean 'full of light or illuminated'. For example: luminous hands of a clock. Here, luminous denotes shiny or that give light. In the example: luminous room; luminous indicates well-lighted. Something that is clear or easy to understand is also termed luminous. Fro example: luminous prose or luminous theory. Luminous could also mean inspiring, intelligent, or enlightened.
It is luminous.
No - the only reflect light.
Stars are luminous, shine by themseves. Moon isn't, it can only reflect light.
Non-luminous refers to objects or bodies that do not produce their own light but instead reflect light from other sources. Examples of non-luminous objects include most planets in our solar system, which reflect sunlight rather than generate their own light.
Luminous objects emit their own light, such as the sun or a light bulb, whereas non-luminous objects do not produce light but reflect light from other sources, like the moon or a table. Luminous objects are sources of light, while non-luminous objects only appear visible when light is shone upon them.

No. Eyes are not luminous. They observe or perceive light but they do not emit light. Luminous means "emit light." There are various species of animals, such as deer, cats, and dogs, whose eyes have the ability to reflect light which sometimes make them appear to glow in the dark as they reflect a flashlight, headlight, or other light that is shining in their direction. But even then, the eyes do not produce their own light so they are not luminous.
They don't. They reflect light from the sun.
Technically, no nebulae are luminous. The ones that appear as such have stars either within or near them, and the nebulae merely reflect the light emitted by these stars.
A luminous object is an object that can reflect light! examples of these objects are the moon, etc. hope that helped :)
