What is in the sky?
Common things that we can see in the sky are clouds, raindrops, the Sun, the Moon, stars, airplanes, kites, and birds. ... The Moon and stars are in the sky during the day, but we cannot usually see them because during the day, the Sun brightens the sky. The Sun is actually a star, and it is the closest star to the Earth.
What did the stars look like?

Why do stars twinkle?
As light from a star races through our atmosphere, it bounces and bumps through the different layers, bending the light before you see it. Since the hot and cold layers of air keep moving, the bending of the light changes too, which causes the star's appearance to wobble or twinkle.12 Shahrivar 1396 AP
How old are the stars we see?
For the most part, the stars you see with the naked eye (that is, without a telescope) are still alive. These stars are usually no more than about 10,000 light years away, so the light we see left them about 10,000 years ago.
Who should Ophiuchus marry?
Compatible? LEO, GEMINI, CAPRICORN. Ophiuchus would find a fellow passionate fighter in Leo, a great thinker and fellow adventurer in Gemini, and an ambitious and strong partner in Capricorn. Opiuchus is not noted for fidelity, so perhaps they could 'mingle' with all three! AP

What can you see in the sky?
- The night sky is an ever-changing display of all kinds of objects. You can see stars, constellations, the moon, meteors, and sometimes you can see planets. Five planets: Mercury, Venus , Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn are able to be seen with the naked eye because of their brightness.
Are the stars always in the sky?
- The sky is always the same and the stars are always there even if you cannot see them because daylight outshines them or the Earth blocks your view of them. Stars don't appear in the same constellations, they remain there. They do move, though. It just that they are so far away that you can't detect their motion.
Is the sun always in the sky?
- The sun is always pretty high in the sky (at noon) at the equator; not always overhead but always pretty high (66 degrees or more). That coupled with the fact that days are 12 hours long throughout the year means that there is very little seasonal change in the amount of sunlight energy arriving at the equator.
What planets are visible in the sky?
