When it is sunset it is also star rise and when is star set is also sunrise with just that short period of dawn and twilight when it is neither.

As a package it is one rotation to the central Sun and although we inherit the timekeeping aspect as one 24 hour day where these events follow one after another in respect to each rotation, why humanity chooses to insult itself or rather those who call themselves astronomers, cosmologists, planetologists or some other term can't bring themselves to promote it due to a silly mistake made centuries ago -

I worked a lot on the orbital motion to the Sun and how the stars appear to move from left to right of the same central Sun as we look out into the inner solar system -
