Twilight is when the sun is below the horizon- either has not yet risen, or has just set. Civil twilight- what most people mean when they say twilight- the sun is no more than 6 degrees below the horizon. There is also nautical twilight, where the sun can be as much as 12 degrees below the horizon. That time is used by sailors to take "sightings" on stars with a sextant for navigation. In Nautical twilight, you can see stars, but there is still a visible horizon to use in your sightings.
