If we cold see the stars during the day...

Ever wondered what the sky looks like during the day if we could see the stars? The other evening as I was watching the sunset and I asked myself this question. There is a way to find out. Check this out:
Here is the sunset:















And this is what it would look like if we could see the stars:

You can see the constellation Taurus and right next to it to the left is Orion  setting. On the lower right, right at the edge, is the sun, just going below the horizon. So if you look at the original sunset picture, to the left of the Sun is the constellation Taurus and right next to it is Orion. You see, constellation do not go away, they are still there, just the light of the sun makes them invisible.
