This assumption is correct. The emissivity of a substance is the ratio of the energy radiated from a body to the energy radiated from a black body (perfect emitter). Because these stars reflect negligible radiation compared to the amount they emit.
The answer would be the Scientific Method.
Its acceleration is constant.
Bigger objects have more gravitational pull. Bigger, meaning the size and mass. The closer you are to the object, the stronger the pull is. The earth is much bigger, and has a bigger mass than the moon, meaning that the moon is able to orbit around the earth. You are closer to the earth, so you dont randomly get pulled towards thw moon, because earts gravitational pull is stronger than the moons.
Explanation:
In the plane of the Solar System, called Ecliptic plane, Sun is at the center and all the planets including Earth are going around the Sun in their respective orbits. As seen form the Earth, Sun appear to go around it and in this process it crosses through 12 constellations. These constellations are called as Zodiacs. Now since all the planets move in almost the same plane, they will appear in the sky to be lying near the ecliptic.
Sun's own motion is not that evident to us because of which the impact of that motion is nullified. But, motion of planet is clearly visible and it also shows in their annual round around the Sun. Here, Mars also shows retrograde motion which means it will show a back and forth motion in the sky. Because of which Mars might be visible in the same zodiac for a longer Duration as compared to the Sun.
