The Sun is a burning ball of gases at the center of our solar system. It does not have a particular side that is illuminated. The Sun is the source of illumination for the other planets in the solar system.
No. The Sun is simply facing the other side of the Earth at nighttime.
The Sun is the star at the center of the Solar System. It is almost perfectly spherical and consists of hot plasma interwoven with magnetic fields. The sun is always "illuminated", however the way it illuminates the other planets depends on that particular planet.
The Sun will always be there with you, and by your side
It is always in the sky but when it is dark on one side of the earth, the sun is up on the other side. So yes, the sun is always up.
The side that faces away from the flashlight or the sun is always the dark side.
The side of the moon facing the sun is always lit up, while the opposite side remains in darkness. This phenomenon is due to the moon's synchronous rotation, which results in one side always facing the sun.
Illuminate is used as a verb. She hoped telling her side of the story would help illuminate what actually happened. The room began to illuminate.
The moon must be on the opposite side of the Earth from the Sun to appear full. This alignment causes the sunlight to fully illuminate the side of the moon facing the Earth, creating the appearance of a full moon.
No, the phase of the moon is not determined by the Earth's distance to the sun. A full moon occurs when the moon is on the opposite side of the Earth from the sun, which allows sunlight to fully illuminate the side of the moon facing Earth.
One half of the moon's surface is always illuminated by the sun. This is because the moon's rotation is synchronized with its orbit around the Earth, resulting in the same side always facing towards Earth (the near side) and the other side always facing away (the far side).
Well, assuming the Earth rotated in such a way that one side was always facing the sun and the opposite side were always facing away from it, like Venus (maybe it was Mercury), then Earth could not support life because the side facing the sun would be very hot, and the other side would be very cold, like Venus, the side always facing the sun is around 900 degrees F, and the cold side is around -280 or -300 degrees F.
This happens because the Earth is round and rotates on its axis, causing different parts of the world to experience day and night at different times. The Sun can only illuminate one side of the Earth at a time, so when it is daytime in one location, it is nighttime on the opposite side of the Earth.
