How have people explained the pattern of day & night?
Throughout history different groups of people have had different explanations for the change from night to day. Today's scientist agree that day and night are due to earth's rotation. When a part of the earth is facing the sun, it's daytime. When a part of the earth is away from the sun, it's nighttime, and we can see the moon lit up by the sun. Many creatures thrive after nightfall. They prowl for food in the darkness using their keen eyesight to spot prey.
