The sun's light is so bright that it overpowers the light coming from the stars, so the stars are not visible in the daytime. But they are still there, all the same.

Stars will not go for shopping in daytime.. It exists in these huge universe. But, sunlight has more intensity that fades light from stars . It is similar to find a candle light behind a high intensity flurocent light. Same principle applicable for moon too..

They are still there (if you go down to the bottom of a deep well, you will see some), but the light from the sun, hitting particles of dust in the atmosphere, is so strong that it drowns out the small amount of light from the stars, until sunset.

If you know where to look, sometimes you can see Venus during the day. This is a planet of course, but is the only thing bright enough to be seen during the day, other than the Sun and Moon.

I by no ability flew Concorde, yet a chum who did pronounced that the sky turns purple at that altitude. as a result, the sky would be like twilight. Venus would be seen extremely of course in sunlight hours at favorable circumstances, so i'd wager that the brightest stars would have been seen from Concorde, yet possibly no longer quite from those tiny passenger domicile windows. you will in all probability could be finding incredibly extreme in the sky, by much less atmosphere. regrettably, no one is going to be testing this out - no airline passengers besides.

the brightness of star is lesser than that of the sun so we can see the stars only during the night

The sun is so bright that is overwhelms the light from the stars.
If there is a solar eclipse, you can see some stars.

Sun's light illumination is too bright that lights coming from stars is invisible :)

don't you think the day light is too bright for you to see the stars!

If your older than me, then its simple. do you know of the word worship? Peter was born first to prepare for the coming of Christ. Thats the same for you and me.
