Daylight through 2026

Daylight Civil twilight Nautical Astronomical Night

The earliest sunset of the year is at 4:56 pm on 29 November; the latest is 6:35 pm on 3 July. Those dates are not the solstices — the difference between clock time and solar time shifts them by a week or more.

Sunrise ranges from 4:56 am on 8 June to 6:28 am on 14 January.

Averaged across the year, a day here holds 12h 8m of daylight.

What makes sunsets in Dhanbad different

Sitting on the eastern side of its time zone puts solar noon at 11:31, a full 29 minutes before twelve o'clock, and drags the whole day — sunrise, noon and sunset — along with it.

It takes roughly 23 minutes to go from sunset to proper darkness, right on the 24-minute median for today.

Between solstices the sunset walks 52° across the horizon — WSW in midwinter, WNW in midsummer — which is why a fixed viewpoint works only part of the year. Today's bearing is W.

By the end of October the sun will be setting 26 minutes earlier than it did on the first, a shift of roughly 52 seconds a day.

Planning a sunset photo in Dhanbad

Arrive by 4:37 pm. Golden hour opens at 4:52 pm and the sun is down by 5:23 pm, so that leaves about fifteen minutes to find a position before the light is worth using.

Face west — the sun goes down at 263° on the compass today. That bearing moves through the year, so a composition that works this week may not in three months.

Do not pack up at sunset. Blue hour follows from 5:36 pm and runs to 5:45 pm, the end of civil twilight and 22m after the sun disappears. That is the window where city lights balance against the sky.
