How does a reflective material such as a space blanket reflect heat as well as light? Like, I knew light was reflected off of mirror like surfaces but I can’t comprehend the heat part. Can someone please, explain this to me. How do space blankets work?

Visible light and heat (technically known as infrared) both exist on the electromagnet spectrum and are waves of energy; thus heat can be reflected like light in a mirror.
