The light emitted from our own star, the Sun, is scattered within our atmosphere and creates the blue sky we see during the day. This blue sky is not as bright as our Sun, but is brighter than the light we receive from other stars. Hence the scattering of light obscures our view of the stars.

Why cant we see stars during the day?
We can, t see the stars in a day beacues the light of sun is very bright comparatively to the stars thes reason

Stars in general disappear in the daytime because the bright diffused light from the Sun overpowers the dim starlight.

There still there you can't see it because the star is a sun and in light you cant see a small peace of sun so its still there but you can't see it.

Why can't you see stars when you're up in a plane?
You cant see stars in an plane because of all the clouds blocking the viewAnswer:Nothing stops you from seeing stars in the night sky when you are in an aeroplane. You cannot see them in the daytime sky for the same reasons that you cannot see them in the daytime sky from the ground. The light from the sun interacts with the atmosphere to produce a scattering of light that overpowers the light from the stars. An aeroplane is only a few kilometers from the ground and still deep in the atmosphere of the earth.
Why can't we see the star in the daytime?
The atmosphere is way too bright. - However, you can see bright stars, or planets, if you know exactly where to look. I have often seen planet Venus during the daytime, even at noon. However, the sun is a star, so one star is easy to see in the daytime (not directly!).
Do we not see stars during the daytime because the sun blocks them or because skylight overwhelms starlight?
we do not see stars in the daylight because skylight overwhelms them. We see the moon in sunlight. The sun cannot block the moon unless in eclipse
Why do meteorites appear only at night?
Simply, they dont. They are just more visible at night than during daylight hours. Just as the stars are still there in the daytime you cant see them because of the light level of the sun in the atmosphere is greater than that of the stars. We get the same number of meteors in the daytime as we do at night. Many smaller meteors just dont burn bright enough to be visible in the daytime sky. A meteor is in the sky, a meteorite is a meteor that has made it to the Earths surface. See the related link for more details.
Why are you unable to see stars during daytime?
Stars are not bright enough to overcome the brightness of the sun (to be seen with the naked eye).2nd Answerer says: Actually, the Sun is the nearest star to our Earth, so in reality, you CAN see ONE star during the day.
Do all-stars shne during the day?
Yes they do shine - all the time. If earth did not have an atmosphere, then you would see them shining up there with the sun in the sky during the daytime as well. Stars are always there, and they will probably be there long after we are gone.
Why other stars than the Sun are seen only at night and not during daytime?
The illumination of the sky during daylight is much brighter than that of most stars. But, if you know EXACTLY where to look, you can (with your eyes or a telescope) see some bright stars during parts of the day when the Sun is not too high in the sky.
