Context The secret to the glowing geode is the glow powder, which is actually zinc sulfide. The zinc sulfide absorbs energy from light, then loses the energy again. When the energy leaves, you can see it as light. This is how the zinc sulfide can “charge up” in the light, and then glow (giving off light energy that you can see) in the dark.
