It's common sense. It's only one sun and several planetary bodies in the orbits. What you see and called "sun" are only reflections from the main Sun from other planetary bodies.

Even the moon gets its lights from reflections from the sun - the moon itself doesn't produce light not heat and can only reflect what comes from the sun.

Geography bro.

I don't read Greek fictions. If that's what you call being smart, then your smartness is infantile.

In 2023, Nigerians saw a sun dog and believed it was the sun.



Never again.

Impressive. There's a lot of CLARITY in the picture that you attached to your post on what a "Sun dog" is.

The "Sun dog" phenomenon in the Jos case study is very faint though.

Learned something new. It can’t happen where I live. This place too hot.
Re: Sun Dogs Appear In Jos, Plateau State (video) by Pacesetter123(m): 10:18pm On Feb 05
I rushed and opened the thread to see pictures of dogs standing in the middle of sun,but I saw none.
What a waste of time and data!

It's still thesame it only depends on where the sun is setting at that particular time. Beautiful anyway!

Just Google it. The sun is the only planetary body aside stars that generates light and there's only one sun.

Though the sun is still thought of as the largest star in the universe, it's created differently and even scientists still haven't fully discovered the mystery behind it.

Pls read below a response to the question when I asked Claude AI
---

Several types of planetary bodies can create light:

**Stars** are the main light-producers. They generate light through nuclear fusion in their cores, where hydrogen atoms fuse into helium, releasing enormous amounts of energy as light and heat. Our sun is a star, and there are hundreds of billions of stars in our galaxy alone.

**Planets don't create their own light** - they only reflect light from nearby stars. So Earth, Mars, Jupiter, and the other planets in our solar system shine by reflecting sunlight, but they're not generating light themselves.

However, there are a few edge cases worth mentioning:

**Gas giants** like Jupiter and Saturn emit slightly more infrared radiation than they receive from the sun due to leftover heat from their formation and gravitational contraction. But this is thermal radiation, not visible light, and it's very faint.

**Brown dwarfs** are sometimes called "failed stars" - they're too massive to be planets but too small to sustain hydrogen fusion like stars. They do glow faintly in infrared from their residual heat.

So to directly answer your question: among planetary bodies, essentially **zero create visible light**. Stars are the light-creators in our universe, while planets are light-reflectors.

Everyone knows:
1. the sun is a start and
2. no planet generate their own light.

Nowhere in what you ask AI did it mention that what we call sun is a reflection. All planets revolve round the sun and need no reflection of any kind.

I never said the sun is a reflection. I said the sun generates lights that are reflected on other planets. We get day and nights as the earth revolves around the sun, right? The earth doesn't generate its own light, it's all reflection from the sun that gives us day and night. That was what I meant.

Yea, it is not a new phenomenon, Yoruba called it aja osupa . Aja olorun. It also happens to the moon . It just a reflection of the sun or the moon in a prism manner. It is a light reaction.
