At any moment, 50% of the earth is lighted by the direct rays of the sun,
and the other 50% of the earth is not.
Over the course of a year, every point on earth is lighted by the direct rays
of the sun for exactly 50% of the time, and not lighted by the direct rays of
the sun for the other 50% of the time.
There is no place on earth that is always lighted by the direct rays of the sun, and
there is no place on earth that is never lighted by the direct rays of the sun.
Has the questioner ever noticed it getting dark outside his home ???

Does the sun have a day and a night?
The sun is a star which means it has it's own light, so it's always daytime on or near the sun. Earth is a planet. Planets do not have their own light. They depend on stars to give them light, which is what the sun does for earth. === ===No, it is always day on the Sun. When we have night on the Earth, that is because our side of the planet is facing away from the Sun, and not getting any light. If you were on the Sun, there's no way to stop getting light.No its a giant ball of gas and fire other planets orbit. Not vice vera therefore it cant change or have seasons.
