From the same event on the same source both should arrive at the same time, unless delayed by an intervening medium.
The Sun
No, Jupiter is not a source of light. It reflects light from the Sun, making it visible from Earth.
The layer of the Sun that emits visible light is the photosphere. It is the outermost layer of the Sun's atmosphere, where the temperature is around 5,500 degrees Celsius (9,932 degrees Fahrenheit). The photosphere is where we see sunspots and solar phenomena, and it acts as the primary source of sunlight that reaches Earth.
From Earth it would be the Sun, which, however not a planet, but a star
From the same event on the same source both should arrive at the same time, unless delayed by an intervening medium.
No, the Earth is not a source of light itself. The Earth's primary source of light is the Sun, which emits light and energy that reaches the Earth and illuminates it. The Earth reflects some of this light, which is why we can see it.

The sun is the main source of electromagnetic energy that reaches Earth. This energy is emitted in the form of electromagnetic radiation across a wide spectrum, from visible light to ultraviolet and infrared radiation.
The source of the electromagnetic energy that reaches Earth from the Sun is nuclear fusion reactions that occur in the Sun's core. Hydrogen atoms fuse together to form helium, releasing vast amounts of energy in the form of electromagnetic radiation, including visible light, ultraviolet light, and infrared radiation.
Energy from the sun reaches the Earth through electromagnetic radiation, primarily in the form of visible light. This light travels through the vacuum of space and reaches the Earth's atmosphere, where it is absorbed and converted into heat energy.
pulsar
Electromagnetic waves, mainly visible light.
Approximately 1-2% of the visible light that reaches Earth's producers is converted to chemical energy through photosynthesis. This energy is then used by the producers to fuel their growth and metabolic processes.
visible light
The most significant source of radiation on Earth is the sun, which emits solar radiation in the form of ultraviolet, visible, and infrared light. This solar radiation reaches the Earth's surface and is essential for sustaining life, but can also lead to risks such as sunburn and skin cancer if exposure is excessive.
