The UK goes dark at night because the Earth rotates. During our daytime, the UK is facing the sun and it is light. The planet is slowly spinning, so the sun appears to move across the sky. In the evening, we begin to lose the light. This is because the UK is moving away from the sun. At night, we are then facing away from the sun. As it gets closer to morning, it starts to get lighter again.
