Is lava a natural source of light?

Yes, lava can be considered a natural source of light. When lava erupts from a volcano, it reaches extremely high temperatures, causing it to glow brightly in shades of orange, red, and yellow. This radiant heat and light result from the intense heat of the molten rock as it flows and cools. Additionally, the light emitted by lava can illuminate surrounding areas, particularly during volcanic eruptions at night.
