 Light reflecting

    You cannot see any object unless light from that object gets into your eyes. Some of the things you see

 give off light of their own. The sun, the stars, a lighted lamp are the examples that can be seen by their own

  light. Such things are luminous, most of the things you see are not giving off light of their own. They are

 simply reflecting light that falls on them from the sun or some other luminous body. The moon, for

 example, doesn't give off any light of its own. It is nonluminous. You see it because sunlight falls on it and

 some of it reflects in our direction. So moonlight is only second-hand sunlight.

     When you look at a book, it sends some of the light which falls on it to your eyes, and you see the

 book. If light could be kept out from where you are so that there would be no light from the book to

 reflect, then you could not see the book even with your eyes wide open. Light travels so fast that the time

 in which it travels from the book you are reading to your eyes is as short as if there were no time at all.

 Light reaches us from the moon, which is about 380, 000 kilometers away, in only a little more than a

 second.
