"Night" means that the Sun is on the other side of the planet from you.
Point your arm directly at the Sun. If your arm is pointed up or sideways, it's day. At night, your arm would be pointing DOWN - through the Earth to the other side of the world.
Because the Sun is on the other side of the Earth, at night we are actually in our own shadow!

∙ 13y agoThe sun shines all the time. It has done so for billions of years, and will do so for billions more. The reason it is said to shine during the day and not the night is because the earth is turning. The fact that the earth revolves on its axis continuously is the reason we see the sun rise and set. Earth's rotation is the basis for day and night.
