It is not 'called' anything. The moon has not yet risen at your location.
The side of the Earth facing away from the Sun has shadow, or is called night. Depending on the latitude and season the duration is half the 24 hour diurnal cycle, on average 12 hours.
Nothing really happens to the sun at night. Instead it is what happens to the part of the Earth where it is night. The earth is always turning, and the part that is turned away from the sun and is in shadow is called night. The sun is shining just the same in other parts of the world at the same time that you have night. See the Web Link for a simple explanation of this.
Yes of course
It is called the dark side of the moon because it never faces the earth, this is caused by the fact that the moon's rotation is the same number of days as it's revolution around the earth. Even though it is called the dark side of the moon it still is as bright as the front side. __________________________ There is no "dark side of the Moon"; the entire Moon has a day-night cycle of 29 days. The Moon always has the "Man in the Moon" face turned toward the Earth, and the other, hidden side is the "far side of the Moon".
Terminator is the twilight zone or "grey line" is a moving line that separates the day from night.The line around the Earth that separates the night side from the day side is called the "terminator".
The night side of the Earth.
Day and night happen Because the earth rotates the side facing the sun is day that the side that doesn't is night that's why we have time zones and when it's day on one side of the earth it's night on the opposite side
When a side of the earth faces the sun, it's day. The opposite side is experiencing night.
There is no such thing as half of the Earth. If you are referring to half of the spherical shape of the Earth then it will be a hemisphere.
Yes, the dark side of the Earth facing away from the Sun is called the "night side" rather than a shadow. Shadow refers more to when an object blocks light, creating a darker area behind it.
As the earth rotates on its axis, one side will face the sun , that side will get day and the other side will be dark, so that side will have night.
east side
Must be the night side. If it was the day side, it wouldn't matter whether the night was clear.
You experience day and night by the rotation of the Earth on it's axis. The portion of Earth that faces the Earth is day and the other side is night.
The distance from side to side through the center of the Earth is called the diameter. The Earth's diameter is 12,742 kilometers.
Because Earth is turning. It's only ever night time on one side of the Earth, the side not facing the sun.
