The night is the period of time that ends with the sunrise in the morning, after the end of the evening. The start and end times of the night vary according to the season, latitude, longitude, and time zone of that place.

On Earth, an average night lasts shorter than daytime due to two factors. Firstly, the Sun's apparent disk is not a point but has an angular diameter of about 32 arcminutes. Without these effects, daytime and night would be the same length on both equinoxes, the moments when the Sun appears to contact the celestial Equator. On the equinoxes, daytime actually lasts almost 14 minutes longer than night does at the Equator and even longer towards the poles.

The night is often associated with danger and evil because of the psychological connection of night's all-encompassing darkness to the fear of the unknown and darkness's obstruction of a primary sensory system (the sense of sight). Nighttime is naturally associated with vulnerability and danger for human physical survival. Criminals, animals, and other potential risks can be concealed by darkness. Midnight has particular importance in human imagination and culture.

The summer and winter solstices mark the shortest and longest nights, respectively. The closer a location is to either the North Pole or the South Pole, the more comprehensive the range of variation in the night's duration. Although daytime and night nearly equalize in length on the equinoxes, the ratio of the night to day changes more rapidly at high latitudes than at low latitudes before and after an equinox. In the Northern Hemisphere, Denmark experiences shorter nights in June than India. In the Southern Hemisphere, Antarctica sees longer nights in June than Chile. Both hemispheres experience the same patterns of night length at the same latitudes, but the cycles are six months apart so that one hemisphere experiences long nights (winter) while the other is experiencing short nights (summer).

In the region within either polar circle, the variation in daylight hours is so extreme that part of summer sees a period without night intervening between consecutive days, while part of winter sees a period without daytime interfering between successive nights.
