A cloud cover after sunset will stop the day's warmth from escaping into space.
The sun can only shine on part of the earth's surface at any one time. This is why we have day and night in a rolling approach as the earth rotates.
When it is the night it can be -160degrees C and 100 degrees C when it is day
Without Earth's atmosphere, the sky would appear black during the day, similar to outer space. Without the scattering and diffusion of sunlight caused by the atmosphere, the sky would not appear blue. At night, we would see the stars, planets, and other celestial objects more clearly without the atmosphere's distortion.
Earths tilt
Some atmosphere from the terminator pours over the horizon, and there might be a tiny bit of warmth from sunlight reflected off the lunar surface. However, essentially, the sun does not warm the atmosphere at night. This is why, on average, the atmosphere tends to cool all night long, reaching its coldest point just before sunrise.
It's a natural process.
Yes, the atmosphere retains heat at night through a process called infrared radiation. The Earth's surface absorbs heat from the sun during the day and releases it as infrared radiation at night, which is then trapped by greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, keeping the planet warm.
There are plenty of them. Look up into the night sky and you may well witness one or two during the night - maybe more.When a meteorite enters the Earths atmosphere it becomes a meteor or shooting star.
In atmosphere we have 21 % of oxygen and at night it doesnot means the whole oxygen is converted in to Co2..its only the content of Co2 INCREASES in atmosphere where there is no sunlight, not to worry as half of portion of earth is always in sunlight.. and the O2 ia always balanced in atmosphere..so sleep well..

There is no point on the earths surface that experiences night for 24 hours every day.

rotation
Heat flow entering the Earth's atmosphere varies throughout the day, but typically the highest levels occur during the afternoon when the sun is overhead, resulting in peak heating. At night, heat flow decreases as the Earth cools.
