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.

What is the only thing that can be studied during a solar eclipse?

You can study the gravitational force the sun excerts on light of other stars by comparing their position in daytime during the eclipse and a night. Einstein's General Theory of Relativity was proved in this way.


Are stars always in the sky even during the day?

Yes, stars are always in the sky even during daytime.


WHY stars shine in night time where as not in day time?

Stars shine at nighttime but not in the daytime because it is dark. During the day the sun is bright which blocks the light from the stars. Once the sun is down and the sky is dark, it is easier to see the glimmer.


Every night you see the usual stars... the big dipper and others. What stars are on the other side of the planet where it is daytime?

The star that can be seen on the other side of the planet where it is daytime is the Sun, which is so bright -- except for during a total eclipse -- it outshines all the other stars. To see what is/was behind the sun you will have to wait half a year until the earth's orbit takes it to the other side of the sun. Then the night sky will show you the stars that the sun was hiding. The constellations that are hidden by the sun in this way are those that form the zodiac. Constellations like the big dipper in the north are circumpolar (they are above rather than on a level with the sun) and thus remain visible all year.


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.

No. As you have no doubt noticed, you cannot see the stars during the day.


Are some stars invisible because the sun is so hot?

No, because at night the Sun is hidden. But the Sun's brightness prevents stars being seen in the daytime.


Where do the stars go at night?

Stars don't go anywhere at night or during the day. A star always remains where it is, but your ability to see it can be hampered by city lights, smog, and other factors.


Is the big dipper high in the north winter or low?

The big dipper is fairly low in the winter sky at night. It would be high in the sky in the daytime, but in the daytime you can't see the stars!
