There is a very simple reason why the sun is not seen at night. The following argument is
presented in all seriousness:
What are the definitions of "day" and "night" ? They are, respectively, the period of time when
the sun is up, and the period of time when the sun is not up.
The sun is not seen in the night, simply because we define "night" to be the time when the
sun is not seen.
We don't define day and night in terms of the moon, since its influence on our ability to get around
and pursue our activities is relatively negligible.
What else can I help you with?
Why is it sometimes you can see the moon in the day and sometimes you can't see it at night?
You can see the moon in the day if it's in a specific phase and position in relation to the sun. During a full moon, it's visible both day and night. When the moon is a crescent or in a different phase, it may not be visible at night due to its position relative to the Earth and the sun.
Why cant you see the moon as well in the day as you can at night?
because of the sun
Whether sun and moon same?
sun and moon different sun bigger, farther, hotter, heavier, brighter than moon sun all gas, moon all rock people been to moon, no people been to sun you can see moon day or night, but you can't see sun at night
When earth is in between the sun and moon is it up all day or all night?
When the Earth is in the middle, you have to be on the side away from the sun in order to see the moon. That side can't see the sun, so it said to be "night" there.
Why can't we rarely see the moon during the day?
you can't see the moon rarely in the day because the sun is already shining on earth. the moon is just a rock thats reflects light from the sun at night
Why does the moon seem to shine at nigth?
The moon seems to shine at night, because it reflects the light given off by the sun. We can not see the moon's reflection during the day, because the sun light is too bright, but, at night, the moon reflects the light given off by the sun and we can see it.
Why can you see the moon at night?
You can see the moon at night because it reflects light from the sun. Even though the sun has set and it is dark on Earth, the moon's surface still reflects enough sunlight to be visible in the night sky.
Does the moon have daytime and nighttime?
Yes, it can be argued that Moon has a day time and night time. Day time is when the moon is shining bright above the sky, night time is when the moon is dark. Hence the term "Dark Side of the Moon".
Why do you see the moon only at night?
Actually, you can see it in the day too, but it's more clearer in the night. Want to know why? Read on! The sun is basically the reason why the moon is clearer at night. As you know, in the day, the sun is shining, and it is so strong that it does not make the moon visible. What I mean is, since the moon has light too, like the sun, it camouflages with the sunlight, or it blends in with the sunlight. When it blends in, you can't see the moon. At night, it's a whole different story. As you know, the sun sets at night, so not a lot of sun is shining on your side of the earth. Sometimes it does shine a little, which makes a crescent moon, and, well, you know. But when there is no sunlight shining, you will see the full moon. Cool, right? Anyway, I hope it helped because you just wasted thirty seconds of my life. Have a wonderful day (Or in this case...Have a wonderful night! [Ooh...Having a little bit of that?])
Why does moon and stars come out at night?
StarsBecause the stars are bright like the sun so we can only see the sun in the day though they are still there. MoonBecause the moon is around at the other side of the earth when it is day.
How do you see the moon during day?
The moon is always in the sky, the reason we can see it at any time is because it reflects the brightness of the sun. During the night the earth revolves so that the sun is on the opposite side of the earth. During the day the sun shines so much brighter than the moon's reflection so we ultimately see the sun first.
Why can you see the full moon only at night?
Because this is how the moon cycle works: MOON---EARTH---SUN=full moon EARTH---MOON---SUN=new moon. So, when you see the moon during the daytime, it's because its orbit is interfering with the Sun's. But during a full moon, when the moon is behind the Earth, it cannot interfere. See?
