Best Answer

there needs to be no lights

Because the sky is dark at night, so the light of the sun, reflecting off a planet, can be seen, just as the light from the stars can be seen against the dark sky. During the day, the light from the planets and stars is obscured by the much brighter light from the sun.

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.
