Do Asteroids Emit Radio Signals?
Question: Do Asteroids emit radio signals? — Ron
Answer: Asteroids are basically rocks floating around in our solar system. When asteroids absorb light from the Sun their surfaces heat-up. When their surfaces heat-up they re-emit light at longer wavelengths, through a process called black body emission, including infrared and radio wavelengths. This then allows us to see asteroids at radio wavelengths.
