comets.
Planets, moons, asteroids, and comets do not emit their own light and heat like stars do. Instead, they reflect light from stars like the Sun. Additionally, planets are formed from the leftover materials in a protoplanetary disk around a star, while moons, asteroids, and comets are generally remnants of this formation process.
Stars, planets, moons, comets, and asteroids emit or reflect light in space. Stars produce their own light through nuclear fusion, while planets and moons reflect light from the Sun. Comets and asteroids can also reflect sunlight, making them visible in the night sky.
Icy objects that light up the night sky include comets and meteors. Comets are made of ice, dust, and rocks, and produce a glowing tail of gas and dust when they approach the sun. Meteors are pieces of rock or metal that enter Earth's atmosphere, creating a bright streak of light as they burn up due to friction.
Non-luminous objects in space include planets, asteroids, comets, moons, and dust clouds. These objects do not emit their own light but instead reflect light from nearby stars or other luminous sources. They can be observed through telescopes or spacecraft.
Moons and comets appear to shine because of the light they reflect. Stars produce their own light.
No, planets, stars, and comets shine due to their own sources of light. Stars produce light through nuclear fusion in their cores. Planets and comets can also reflect light from the Sun, but they do not emit their own light.
no Bkuz comets arnt used as mirrors. Ignore that. Yes, comets shine due to reflected light because they do not produce their own light, much as our moon reflects light from the sun causing it to shine in the sky.
since the comet is made of ice, when it gets nearer to the sun it melts down because of the heat of the sun
No. Neither do any of their moons, and neither do any comets or asteroids.
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.
by its light
No. Stars generate their own light, and are far more massive than any comet. Comets don't shine at all; they merely reflect the light of the Sun. From our perspective here on Earth, some comets appear to be brighter than stars, but only because the comets are here in THIS solar system, relatively nearby, while stars are many light-years away.
comets.
Comets shine due to the reflection of sunlight off their icy nucleus and dust particles surrounding it. When a comet approaches the Sun, the heat causes the nucleus to melt and release gas and dust, forming a glowing coma and tail visible from Earth.
Comets emit primarily visible light, infrared radiation, and ultraviolet radiation. These emissions come from the heating and vaporization of their surface ices as they get closer to the sun.
Yes, comets can emit ultraviolet rays as well as visible light and other wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation. When comets approach the Sun, they are heated, causing gases and dust to vaporize and emit a glowing cloud or coma around the comet's nucleus. This glowing cloud can emit various types of radiation, including ultraviolet rays.
