Original Note:
Clouds appearing to be behind the sun are an optical illusion caused by the difference in brightness. It can be recreated with other light sources. https://www.metabunk.org/threads/explained-why-clouds-appear-behind-the-sun-and-moon.7084/ The sun has been known for millennia to be extremely distant on an everyday scale. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astronomical_unit#History
