The earth is never really facing away from the sun- the erath doesn't really have a 'front'. If you are talking about your side of the planet, then when it is away from the sun it is night time.
Night
As earth rotates the part that is facing the sun has day light.
When part of the Earth faces the sun, it experiences daylight and warmth due to direct sunlight. This exposure causes temperatures to rise and facilitates photosynthesis in plants, supporting life. Conversely, the side of the Earth that faces away from the sun experiences nighttime and cooler temperatures. This cycle of day and night is a result of the Earth's rotation on its axis.
When the moon is between the earth and the sun it blocks part or all of the view of the sun and it's called a solar eclipse
The distance between the Earth and the sun is not measured in years, but in a unit called Astronomical Units (AU). One AU is approximately 93 million miles or 150 million kilometers. The average distance from the Earth to the sun is about 1 AU.
Day and night are caused by the rotation of the Earth on its axis. When a specific side of the Earth faces the sun, it is daytime in that region, and when it faces away from the sun, it is nighttime. This rotation takes approximately 24 hours to complete.
Night
The earth rotates as it revolves around the sun. When the side of the earth where Australia is faces the sun the side of the earth where Africa is faces away from the sun. As the earth rotates the side with Africa will turn toward the sun and the side with Australia will rotate away from the sun.
Just like the earth, the moon has a side that faces the sun (day) and a side that faces away from the sun (night). During a full moon, the side of the moon that faces the earth is lit by the sun and appears in daylight whereas the side of the moon that faces away from the earth is in shadow (night). During a new moon, the opposite is true. The side of the moon that faces the earth is in shadow (night) and the side that faces away from the earth is exposed to the sun (day).
Day and night. One half of the Earth is always illuminated by the Sun, while the other half faces away. The spinning of the Earth is called its rotation.

Earth experiences day and night due to its rotation on its axis. As Earth rotates, one half of the planet faces the Sun, experiencing daylight, while the other half faces away from the Sun, experiencing darkness or night. This cycle creates the 24-hour day-night cycle we observe.
Yes, that's correct. Earth experiences day and night as it rotates on its axis, with the side facing the sun experiencing daylight and the side turned away experiencing darkness. This rotation creates a cycle of about 24 hours known as a day.
the part of the earth that you are on faces the sun. (the earth rotates on its axis) When it faces the sun, you see it.
the answer is the sun
As earth rotates the part that is facing the sun has day light.
As the earth rotates, different parts of the earth face the sun, that's day. The parts rotated away from the sun don't get any light, so it's night there. So when the earth spins, it faces different directions, away from the sun and facing the sun.
