if i shine a torch up to the sky at night, how come i can't see the spot it's pointed at? or if i light a candle outside at night, how come it suddenly doesn't turn the entire suburb I live in into like daylight?
light has a limit/radius....that is why thousands of miles away in USA u can't see the suns light when night time in Africa......not to mention the fact that humans have limited vision anyway.
That being the case (as per the model presented in the vid from the eclipse thread) ,

Also do you believe the sun to be a globe body providing and omni directional source of light
or a flat body providing a uni direction source of light?
(question was based on the day and night cycle)

due to myself not having the technology to strap on a jet pack & breathing apparatus, and fly up the 3000 miles to the sun and personally see first hand what it is......I can only use my personal, first-hand observations and deduce that it could be a sphere or a flat disc, but most certainly does have a (limited) uni direction of light.

... do you still believe the sun to be a unidirectional source of light?
Based on the argument you just provided, it can be an omni-direction globe source of light with the light not being strong enough to light up the opposite ends of the FE model above causing night
