The sun is much smaller and much closer to Earth than in your model.
Imagine a Dinner-plate with the center as the magnetic North pole, now imagine a glowing airplane about 5,000 mile up that constantly travels west ward, spiraling either upwards or downwards in-between the tropics.
The light from the Sun is localized (as you can see in high-altitude footage) obscured by both air particles as well as our perspective.
Also, quick question, have any one of you ever observed a full moon at midnight?
