The age of the universe and the speed of light predicts the darkness which we observe. There is a similar paradox called "Olbers Paradix" which also asks this question but in a different form. The universe simply isn't old enough for the light emitted by older stars far away to reach us. Given the expansion of the universe and fabric of space, light is also shifted away from the visible spectrum.
This does explain why the sky is dark.
If there were something influenced by light, this would presumably be absorbing the light, but thermodynamics would mean this "something" would then have to re-emit the light, in all directions (as all astronomical bodies do) so we would be able to detect it.
But then, proving the lack of something is far more difficult than proving the existence of something. Hope this helps.
ANSWER: Light as we see it has all the spectrum colors that we can detect or frequency in essence. dark or black is the lack of these frequency or below our detection by our eyes

In layman's terms, as far as we are aware darkness is the absence of visible light, as our eyes work by detecting visible light that has bounced off other objects, so if there is no light, there is nothing for us to detect. However there is much in the universe that is unknown, so technically there could be something blocking light, but unless you're doing a physics + philosophy degree I don't think you need to worry about it!
Light and darkness are achieved through the presence or absence of light. Light is produced when photons are emitted or reflected, while darkness occurs when there is no light present to illuminate an object or space. Manipulating the source of light or blocking it can create different levels of brightness and darkness.
No, light can exist in both darkness and in the presence of other light sources. Light is a form of electromagnetic radiation that is produced by sources such as the sun or artificial light bulbs, and can be present in various environments.
The magnetic field lines are influenced by the presence of a bar magnet, causing them to curve around the magnet from the north pole to the south pole in a continuous loop.
Yes, water can evaporate in darkness. Evaporation occurs when molecules at the surface of the water gain enough energy to break away and become a gas. The presence of light does not affect the process of evaporation.
The coefficient of friction is influenced by factors such as the roughness of the surfaces in contact, the materials of the surfaces, and the presence of any lubricants or contaminants.
Shadow is a partial blocking of light caused by an object. Darkness refers to the absence of light in an area. Shadows exist because of the presence of light, while darkness occurs when there is a lack of light.
To describe an evil presence you have to use words such as darkness, blood and horror.
The cast of Presence of Darkness - 2010 includes: Kelley Janell Hall as Melissa Ronni Lea as Courtney Marilyn Weinmann as Landlady
Most thing burn in the presence of oxygen.
No. Scientifically speaking, just like you cannot measure the "coldness" of an object, you cannot make a torch that emits darkness. Cold and Dark are merely absence of Heat and Light respectively, and when something is cold, you are basically measuring the absence of heat, and not the presence of a new force, i.e. "coldness". And besides, who wants a torch that emits darkness? It would be highly irrelevant.

The thing that the more you have of it, the less you see, is darkness. As darkness increases, visibility decreases, making it harder to see objects and details around you. Essentially, the presence of more darkness obscures light and hinders vision.
God had a son named Jesus, who is the son of light. God turned into the father of light. So where ever he goes, his light gets rid of the darkness.

In the Bible, darkness is often used symbolically to represent sin, evil, and spiritual blindness. It signifies a separation from God and a lack of understanding or awareness of His truth. Darkness is associated with moral wrongdoing and the presence of evil forces. It serves as a contrast to light, which represents goodness, truth, and the presence of God. The theme of darkness in the Bible highlights the consequences of turning away from God and the need for spiritual enlightenment and redemption.
No, things don't work that way. (Unless you're in a black hole, in which everything including light is sucked in) But in a room? No, that's not going to happen.
In "Lord of the Flies," darkness symbolizes the descent into savagery and the loss of civilization and order. It represents the characters' inner darkness and the growing fear and violence on the island. Darkness also conveys the theme of the loss of innocence and the presence of evil within human nature.
