Which describes why people on earth can see light from the stars in the sky that are so far away?








A

Light from the stars is visible light and travels in longitudinal waves. Longitudinal waves require a medium to travel; therefore, light is reflected off particles of matter in space to be seen on the earth.







B

Light from the stars is visible light and travels as surface to surface waves. Surface waves require a medium to travel; therefore, light travels from the surface of the star to the surface of the earth.







C

Light from the stars is visible light and travels in electromagnetic waves. Electromagnetic waves require a medium to travel; therefore, light is reflected off particles of matter in space to be seen on the earth.







D

Light from the stars is visible light and travels in electromagnetic waves. Electromagnetic waves do not require a medium to travel; therefore, light travels through the vacuum of space to be seen on the earth.


I think it is D
