Solar cells create their energy from photons. Photons are what make up light. At night there is no light so therefore there is no energy created.
Photovoltaics (PV) are the direct conversion of sunlight into electrical power.

A solar PV system uses the natural energy from daylight in the form of solar radiation to generate electricity.

As the earth turns we see the stars move across the sky then the sun rises and we cant see the stars but if we could what stars would we see?

During the day, the bright light from the sun makes it difficult to see other stars. If we were to see stars during the day, we would see the same ones that are present in the night sky but they would be much dimmer and harder to distinguish due to the sun's glare.


Why can you see the sun only in the day time?

You can see the sun only in the daytime because it is the time when the sun is above the horizon and its light reaches the Earth. At night, the sun is below the horizon, and the Earth blocks its light, making it invisible to us.

Why do you see the moon in the day but not the sun at night?

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.
