Year distribution of sunrise and sunset times in Zhongshan Station, East Antarctica - 2026
The following graph shows sunrise and sunset times in Zhongshan Station, East Antarctica for every day of the year.
Daylight Dawn & dusk (civil twilight) Night Solar noon
Earliest and latest sunrise and sunset in Zhongshan Station
In Zhongshan Station, the earliest sunrise of 2026 is on November 20 at 12:13 am, while the latest sunrise is on July 16 at 11:35 am. The earliest sunset is on May 27 at 12:20 pm, and the latest sunset is on January 21 at 11:54 pm.
Zhongshan Station gets 24h 00m more daylight on the longest day than on the shortest one (24h 00m versus 0h 00m). Averaged over the whole year, a day lasts 12h 12m.
Zhongshan Station Analemma
Due to Earth's tilted axis and slightly elliptical orbit, the Sun is never seen in the same position at noon in Zhongshan Station. Throughout the year, it slowly traces this figure-eight:
Move along the curve to read the Sun's altitude and azimuth for any day of the year in Zhongshan Station.
Over the year, the 12:00 Sun ranges from 2.8° below the horizon (around Jun 20) to 44° above it (around Dec 23) in Zhongshan Station. The smaller loop hangs at the bottom, the signature of a Southern Hemisphere analemma. For about 60 days around midwinter the whole figure sinks below the horizon — the Sun does not rise at noon at all.
Detailed Analemma Chart
The technical chart below plots one dot per day, labels the first day of each month, marks the solstices, equinoxes, perihelion and aphelion, and draws the noon altitude of the equinoxes (90° minus your latitude) together with its ±23.4° seasonal limits.
Why does the figure look wider here than in the sky view above?
Both draw the same data, but with different conventions. The sky view uses the same scale on both axes, so it shows the analemma with its true proportions, as a camera would capture it: about 47° tall and only a few degrees wide. This chart, like most technical analemma diagrams, stretches each axis independently to fill the plot, expanding the narrow azimuth range several times so its day-to-day variation can actually be read. Also, azimuth is not sky distance: near the zenith, one degree of azimuth spans much less than one degree across the sky, which further widens the figure in this representation.
