The sun lights up the moon and that light is reflected back to earth making it viewable, the surrounding sky is dark because there is nothing there for the sun to shine light upon. The other stars in the sky create their own light.
Saturn is not always visible in the night sky. Its visibility depends on its position in its orbit relative to Earth, as well as the time of year. Saturn is most visible when it is at opposition, which is when it is directly opposite the Sun in the sky.
Because the poles tilt towards the sun in summer the North and South Poles have six months when the sun is visible day and night.
Stars are always in the sky but as the sun shines brightly in the day it can not be seen. They are sometimes not visible at night if it is cloudy or if you are in an area with a lot of light pollution.
The Moon will be visible just after sunset tomorrow night, September 21, and every night for the next 25 days. Then the Moon will be too close to the Sun to be visible for a couple of days, and then the cycle will repeat again. As it has every month for 4 BILLION years.
The Sun can not reveal a constellation that it is transiting through. If the Sun is actually in Taurus, this would be during the day time and the constellation would not be visible. At night the Sun is on the opposite side of the zodiac so the opposite sign (Scorpio) would be visible in the night sky.
The sun is not visible at night because at that time we are on the side of Earth facing away from it. Other stars are not visible during the day because they are hidden by the light of the sun scattered through the atmosphere.
The sun is only visible during the day because it is blocked by the Earth at night. When the Earth rotates on its axis, the sun is obscured from view as the part of the Earth you are on turns away from it.
During the morning, you can see the sun in the sky, while at night, the moon is visible.
The Earth orbiting the Sun is responsible for the regular seasonal changes of the constellations visible in the night sky.
because the moon reflects the light coming from the sun
Saturn is not always visible in the night sky. Its visibility depends on its position in its orbit relative to Earth, as well as the time of year. Saturn is most visible when it is at opposition, which is when it is directly opposite the Sun in the sky.
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.
Both the sun and the moon are round when seen with the naked eye. They are also both forms of light that are in the sky. The sun is visible during the day how the moon is usually only visible at night.
It is not possible to see the moon and the sun at the same time since they are located on opposite sides of the sky. The moon is visible mainly at night when the sun has set, and the sun is visible during the day when the moon is not usually visible.
The spin of Earth causes day and night. The sun is visible from one hemisphere but not the other.
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.
As Earth orbits the sun - it takes one year to get around it - we see different parts of space and different patterns of stars, as Earth turns away from the sun every night. The constellations we see on a night in summer, are behind the Sun during the winter.
