I have no problem running roscore but when i run the below command i can it getting started but i dont see any GUI where i see and more turtle. Ideally, there should be another window opened with GUI but nothing happens.

If you only launch illumination.launch there isn't any GUI to expect. Can you clarify what you want to do exactly please ?
