They aren't poor reflectors of light. Comet's are somewhat invisible when they are in deep space because they are simply a chunk of rock and ice. But when they near the sun and the ice begins to melt off forming a huge tail, the light from the sun reflects nicely off the comet's ice crystals
Objects that reflect light include planets, asteroids, and comets. The Sun emits light as it is a star. Meteors are visible as they burn up in the Earth's atmosphere, reflecting some light. Stars emit their own light through fusion reactions.
Moons and comets appear to shine because of the light they reflect. Stars produce their own light.
The light.
The largest visible light telescopes are now all ground-based, such as the Keck Observatory in Hawaii or the Very Large Telescope in Chile. These telescopes provide high-resolution images and data of celestial objects in visible light.
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.
Materials such as wood, paper, fabric, and rough surfaces like concrete are poor reflectors of light. These materials absorb more light than they reflect, resulting in low reflection and poor overall reflectivity.

Materials that are dark and absorb light rather than reflecting it tend to be poor reflectors. Rough, matte surfaces also tend to reflect light in many directions rather than clearly reflecting it back, making them less effective as reflectors. Materials that are transparent or translucent also tend to be poor reflectors because light tends to pass through them rather than being reflected.
No, not all light reflectors are opaque. Some reflectors, such as mirrors and polished metal surfaces, can be transparent or translucent while still effectively reflecting light. The ability of the material to reflect light is more important than its opacity.
Photographic reflectors are used to direct and manipulate light in a photography setting. They can bounce natural light or artificial light onto the subject to fill in shadows, create highlights, and enhance overall lighting. Reflectors help photographers achieve balanced and flattering lighting for their subjects.
Reflectors are used to intensify light in a desired direction.
No but they are very good reflectors.
Reflectors can be used in photography to bounce light onto a subject, creating more even and flattering lighting. By positioning reflectors strategically, photographers can fill in shadows, soften harsh light, and enhance the overall quality of the image.
Diamonds are not typically used as reflectors because they have a high refractive index, which causes light to be refracted rather than reflected. Materials with lower refractive indices, such as metals or mirrors, are more commonly used as reflectors.

Surfaces that are smooth, polished, and light in color are the best reflectors, such as mirrors, metals like silver and aluminum, and white surfaces. These surfaces can efficiently reflect light and minimize absorption.
