“How brave the moon shines in her skin, outnumbered by the stars.”
This beautiful line by Angie Weiland has always made me wonder, making me question myself whenever I look up at the night sky.The instance I look at the sky, I observe a lot of stars, some barely visible to our naked eyes, others comparatively brighter than the other. Our moon, in its full brightness, lightens the sky enough for me to read a book.Why is it that some objects are bright, while others are dim? Why does the moon shine brighter than other objects in the sky? Is that object a planet, Is it a star, or is it a satellite?
Why do planets appear brighter than stars? What is the major difference between a planet and a star, and what factors affect the brightness of a star and a planet? Today, we’re going to share our thoughts on this puzzling topic with you, so that the next time you look up in the sky, you have the knowledge to differentiate between a star and planet.
