Why does it get dark at night?
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

During the day, daylight floods our environment every which way, with both immediate and reflected daylight coming to us from wherever we can see. Around evening time, the daylight doesn't flood the environment, as it's dull wherever in the sky that there isn't a state of light at, similar to a star, planet, or the Moon.
