As always, the day's comparison this time is of two things that are almost diametrically opposed. There's a well known saying, "these two things are as different as day and night". Considering the day's comparison is indeed day and night, this saying is about to rise to a new level of literalness. Parental guidance is advised for all readers who have a fear of the night, or who just dislike comparison blog posts. You have been warned.
Day is mainly characterized by the presence of the sun in the sky, which provides for an abundant source of light and heat. Conversely, night is known for the absence of such a powerful light source, with the moon instead dominating the sky, providing a far less intense light upon the land. Such allows for the stars hanging in the celestial ether, and the cosmic black void beyond them, to become much more readily visible. Furthermore, the temperature lowers as the hot, bright sun lowers below the horizon and the cooler moon rises.
