Stars are always present, but during the day, the Sun’s light is so intense that it scatters in the Earth’s atmosphere, making the sky bright and obscuring the faint light from stars.
You can see stars fading away at dawn and appearing at dusk. During the day we do not see the stars. Explain why.

Stars are always in the sky, but during the day, the Sun’s light overwhelms their faint light. The Earth’s atmosphere scatters sunlight in all directions, creating a bright blue sky that hides the stars. As the Sun sets and the sky darkens, the scattered light diminishes, allowing the fainter starlight to become visible again. This is why we can see stars at dusk and dawn but not during the bright daylight hours.
