I thought I was the only one that noticed. I have been pondering this question for years. Maybe it's part of the end-time signs that the bible talks about:

(Matthew 24:29 KJV) Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:

(Isaiah 13:10 KJV) For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine.

(Ezekiel 32:7 KJV) And when I shall put thee out, I will cover the heaven, and make the stars thereof dark; I will cover the sun with a cloud, and the moon shall not give her light.

(Joel 3:15 KJV) The sun and the moon shall be darkened, and the stars shall withdraw their shining.

Its caused bÿ light pollution
Because of so much light in city centers at night you get a vasetly diminished view of the night sky
It happens even in foreign countries nowadays
Most stargazers have to either go to remote locations or use telescopes which have computer software to reduce the effects of the glare

Meanwhile from the answers on this page its obvious we have an extremely low number of amateur astronomers in this country


Meanwhile guys Planet Venus has been visible in the nightsky and will continue to be for a few more weeks .
Look to the western sky after sunset, its visible even upto 22:00 hrs .
Its the brightest object you will see you can't miss it, except your blind

CaseSensitive:
Oh there are stars in the sky, sextillions of them. CO2 emission is not letting you see them. Go to remote areas like the rural parts of the Middle-Belt or the northern grassland where there are no vehicles emitting fumes, or people setting things on fire then you will see them again in their majestic glory.

At least you can see and feel the sun, that's one star out of many - the only star closest to us which is the ultimate engine of life on this incredibly tiny planet.

Fun Fact: Almost a million of our very own earth can fit inside the sun and the sun is just one star out of hundreds of billions in our Milky Way galaxy alone and there's roughly 200 billion to 2 trillion galaxies in the observable universe. There are more stars in the universe than there are grains of sand on all of earth's beaches combined. Oh and there are some other stars so big that they make our sun look like a tiny spec of dust.

Chilling Fact: Like all stars, our sun will eventually run out of fuel and die, and that's the end of planet earth.

The universe is unimaginable!

Mrexcell:
Incredible i never even knew the sun is so big that it can contain a million earths lord have mercy, imagine having over 200b of such star in this universe God is truly an unimaginable entity no one can fully comprehend.

CaseSensitive:
Ha no. There are way more than 200b of stars in the universe. There's between 200b to 2 trillion stars in our Milky Way galaxy alone. Milky Way galaxy is like our own area of the universe, so every stars you see at night belongs to our Milky Way galaxy. There are trillions of galaxies in the universe. Our Milky Way galaxy is just ONE out of trillions of galaxies in the universe and each galaxy has its own hundreds of billions, if not trillions of stars.

So, you saying "imagine having over 200b of such star in this universe" is like saying Lekki Phase 1 is the whole world. Think about it.

Fun Fact: We are literally star particles. Every single atoms that your body is made of - The carbon, oxygen, nitrogen, calcium, iron etc were produced through nuclear processes inside stars. The atoms in your body existed before earth existed and when you look up to the sky at night and you see stars, you're not merely looking at distant objects, you're looking at the cosmic ancestors of the materials that eventually became YOU. That's where we came from.

We are gods!

Akinola100:
This is true. Because I have been seeing a very brightly lit star. It’s bigger and brighter than the stars we see and it has been fixated on a particular spot. My initial thought was that it was a man made satellite in space. Didn’t know it was Venus. Thank you for the information

Nicotinekills:
A season for everything under the sun

Doctordan:
Signs of the times?

KingRabota:
Kool, glad you've caught on to it.
It will be visible until around October when it will start to overtake planet earth and after some months it will reappear as a morning star in the East.
Man made satellite dont usually stay in one place, they move against the background of the nightsky, because they're not too far up just a few hundred kilometres, except it's in geostationary orbit ( 36,000km), and that's a little further up and waaay more difficult to see with naked eyes
Keep looking up

Akinola100:
Wow. But why did Venus appear visible to us at a certain time of the year. Is it also a yearly phenomenon?

KingRabota:
Good question
From elementary astronomy. We recall that Venus is in the inner orbit withbplanet Mercury, since it's closer to the sun it has a higher orbital velocity and it's radius of orbit is much smaller than that of planet Earth.
If you can imagine this in your mind , you'll see Earth orbiting the sun with Venus but the latter will sometimes appear to be behind Earth and at other times it appears to be ahead.
Currently Venus is behind us which is why we see it in the Western sky , after a while it will move out of Earth's view while it will orbits round the sun, ( since it has a s smaller orbit and higher velocity) and appear in the East as a morning star.
I tried to dumb down on the specifics so I don't sound conflicting.
But that's the short of it
Any questions you got I'm here


That means Venus is currently revolving faster than earth due to it smaller elliptical orbit. Ok. Can we get to see other planets 🪐 like Venus for instance. In fact, Jupiter should be like the size of the moon if it revolves closer to us 😂
