Go learn Hebrew.
Morning is "boqer" and can mean day as well as just morning. We know it means day time here because it was confimred in Exodus, Deuteronomy and by Jesus.

Dinosaurs were extinct before humans were created….the “days” in Genesis were not 24 hour periods. All animal creation was on the 6th day. Read your Bible.
True Science and the Bible cannot disagree….science is the study of God’s creation.
It’s theoretical science that fights with the Bible.

No dinosaurs and man coexisted!
True science supports a young earth. All things were created in 5 24 hour days. Not over X amount of centuries or years. True science supports this and debunks the radio-metric ages of the earth
And they were a 24 hour period. Gpo ask any Jew they will tell you. this was translated from the ir language and they know how to speak it and understand it far better than gentiles do.

Contrary to common understanding, which assumes that the Sabbath week of creation intends to indicate the duration of the creation event, Moses used the Sabbath week as a pneumonic literary device.
I observe that the days of the week begin in the evening and extend into daylight. This mirrors the creation story, which starts in darkness and moves into light. Everything that was once disordered, formless, shapeless, and unclear becomes revealed, clarified, understood, and evident as each day unfolds.
Each day brings new levels of clarity and finer detail. During the first three days, several domains are created: outer space, the sky, the seas, and dry land. The following three days focus on populating each domain: celestial bodies inhabit outer space, birds fill the sky, fish populate the oceans, and land creatures inhabit the land. Each creature is designed to thrive in its respective domain.
Moses doesn't intend to tell us how long the process took. Rather, he notices a significant parallel between a day, which moves from darkness to light and God's creative work, which also moves from darkness to light. And the Sabbath week is a handy way to organize the material to make it easier to understand and remember.
