Reply to comment by svarogteuse in Why from Earth do we see all these stars but in images taken from space we see none? by Suitable-Victory-105
Does this mean that at night, we would be able to see stars when the earth is blocking the sunlight from us?
Edit: reworded the question better.

Akshuallyyyyyyy... You gotta think about the portion of the "sky" that the Earth itself blocks, so basically 1/2 of them at any given time.

Have you ever been outside past sunset before?

Go and drive out to the least populated place you can feasibly go. The less lights from houses, cities, cars the better.
There is literally a river of stars in the night sky aka the Milky Way. It will change your life when you see it.

Yes. However you also likely need a camera taking a longer exposure or with a more sensitive sensor that those use for daylight photos, just like you need on Earth.

You don't actually need Earth blocking the sun for you, you just need to look away from the sun and anything lit by the sun.
