The fuzzy edges of shadows are caused by the blocking of light from a light source by an object that is not perfectly opaque. This results in a partial shadow where some light is able to pass around the edges of the object, creating a blurred or fuzzy boundary.

Does light create a shadow in the vacuum of outer space like it does on the earth?

Shadows are caused by something BLOCKING the light. You can have shadows in space, if something is blocking the light. On Earth, shadows often look fuzzy; this is caused by the Sun's light being scattered in the air. In space, there is nothing to scatter the light, so shadows are sharp-edged and clear.


Movement that causes shadows to change?

The movement of the sun across the sky during the day causes shadows to change. As the position of the sun changes, the angle and length of shadows cast by objects also change. This daily movement of the sun is responsible for the continuous shifting of shadows throughout the day.


Why do shadows have blurry edges?

Because when water goes into the air it enters the clouds and the water starts to build up which causes the clouds to turn gray. hope this helps :)
