∙ 13y agoNot exactly. There's no such thing as "earth" facing the sun.
The sun can only shine on 1/2 of the earth at a time, so only 1/2 of the earth
can 'face' the sun.
Anybody who's standing on the part that's facing the sun has day-time, and
at exactly the same moment, anybody who's standing on the part that's not
facing the sun, has night-time.

∙ 12y agoThe Earth is a sphere (shaped like a ball). There's always 50% of its surface facing
the sun and the other 50% facing away from the sun. The half that's facing the sun
is experiencing a condition known in English as "day", while the half facing away is
in a condition of "night".
