When does the sun set in September? It depends on where you live. Depending on the latitude, the day length and angle of the ecliptic may be different from your location. This article will cover the details of how to find out the exact time that the sun will set in each location. It will also help you to determine the angle of the ecliptic and what time of year it is. After you’ve read this article, you will be well-equipped to plan your travels to the best viewing spots.
Sunset times
If you’re wondering when the sun sets, check the Farmers’ Almanac. These tables are on pages 148 and 150. For June 21 through July 3, the sun sets an hour later than the previous week. Then, the sun sets even later on July 27 and 28. In the month of September, the sun will set an hour earlier than on the equinox on September 21. The following month’s sunsets are the most likely to occur during that time.
In September 2021, the length of the day will be 13 hours, seven minutes. However, the length of the day will decrease by one hour, 17 minutes. Depending on where you live, sunrise and sunset times in September will be different. You can see the length of day in different locations by viewing the Time Zone Table. However, you’ll want to check your local timezone, because sunrise and sunset times vary widely throughout the year.
The calculator can help you determine the time in your location by finding the location of the latest sunrise and sunset. It also tells you when you can expect the next sunrise and sunset. If you live near the equator, you’ll know the time in your local time zone when you travel. The results are not always accurate, due to changing atmospheric conditions and unpredictability in solar calculation algorithms.

Locations
To get an idea of when the sun sets and rises in various locations around the world, check out the table below. The US Naval Observatory has calculated the time of sunset at various locations in the USA for 2004. The sunset on Manhattan is about an hour later than Manhattan. The sunset on the Palisades cliffs is about seven minutes earlier. The sunset on Manhattan is at 6:33pm. If you are traveling during this time, you can check out the sunset times at different locations in the USA.
Angle of ecliptic
The ecliptic crosses the celestial equator at two points each year, the vernal equinox and the autumnal equinox. At each of these points, the sun rises in the east and sets in the west. This means that the daytime hours on either equinox are exactly the same, and the sun is at its most elongated angle at either point.
The ecliptic is tilted 23.5 degrees with respect to the celestial equator, the equator. This tilt makes the sun appear to stand still. The ecliptic also reaches its maximum angular distance at the equinoxes, which occur on March 21 and September 21. In these months, all points on Earth receive 12 hours of daytime, while all parts of the planet experience night. The term equinox means “equal night” in Latin, and the equinox is the longest day of the year. As the autumnal equinox approaches, the sun will become progressively farther south and will be more visible on the horizon.
The ecliptic, or sun’s apparent yearly path around Earth, is a green line. Ancient astronomers must have found this to be odd, as two paths of the sun intersect in different planes. They discovered this by examining the equinoxes and directions of sunset. This information was used to determine the position of the sun at different times of the year.
On September 7, 2021, the new moon will be at its greatest eastern elongation. Mercury will be low in the sky as the ecliptic is at its shallowest angle with the horizon. The ecliptic is also shallowly angled towards the horizon, which is another reason why it can be more easily viewed from the southern hemisphere. The southern hemisphere will get the best view of the new moon during the September full moon because the ecliptic is more perpendicular to the horizon at sunset.
The Earth’s rotation axis tilts the Earth 23.5 degrees from the equator. The angle of the Earth’s axis is roughly equal to the azimuth of the Sun. This angle varies depending on latitude. The northern equator is at the equator while the southern equator is far away from the equator.
Time of year
Until the equinox of December, the path of the sun follows a pattern of ecliptic circles. At these times, the sun rises and sets south of the celestial equator. The sun is also higher in the sky during mid-northern observers. This is why mid-northern observers see low noon sun during mid-September. Here are some fun facts about the sun and solstices.
Sunset occurs when the upper limb of the Sun disappears below the horizon. This occurs due to atmospheric refraction, as the solar disk is already one diameter below the horizon at the time of observation. Further north, locations beyond the Arctic Circle do not experience sunset and sunrise. This occurs because the polar day lasts for 24 hours. In such locations, the Sun does not set until 20 minutes before sunrise.
When the Sun is the highest in the sky, the north pole is always in the sunlight. It travels around the planet just once each day. The summer solstice is the highest point in the sky, and the autumnal equinox is the lowest. By mid-September, the sun spends less than twelve hours above the horizon. The fall equinox is the next month when the Sun spends the most time below the horizon.
