Response Details:
  Given :
 We can't see at night. At night no reflection's takes place by objects ( in obsence of sun ), our human eye cant catch the reflection's.
The light scattered by the atmosphere when the sun is up, that gives the sky its lovely blue colour, is brighter than the light from the stars, hence they cannot be seen.
 I hope it helps you
