The light of the sun is too bright to make out the planets during the day unless there is an eclipse.

Why can you see planets and stars on a night?

The reason you can see planets and stars at night is that their light is faint and the brightness of the sun obscures them during the day. At night, when the sun is not visible, the fainter light from the planets and stars can more readily be seen.

Why do you see planets just after sunset and just before sunset?

The two planets that are between Earth and the sun are Mercury and Venus. Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun. Venus is the second closest planet to the Sun. These two planets can only be seen when the observer on earth is facing towards them. That occurs only during the early morning twilight, the entire day, and the early evening twilight. During the night, and observer is facing away from the two planets. During the day, it is difficult, but not impossible, to see either Mercury or Venus due to the glare of the sun. The remaining planets have an orbit that places them farther out from the sun than earth. They can be seen only when it is night, or early twilight. The three outer planets that are easiest to see with the naked eye at night are Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn.
