Yesterday when my husband told me, from one of his customers he came to know that sun sets in America at 9 pm and that nights are short........I just can't believe it. Is it true? :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:
If so how many hours will Americans sleep? Will they sleep till 9 am??
I also want to know such 'setting sandhya' matters if you know any :whistle: :whistle: :whistle:

Of course it happens in summer.Even in Europe during summer months which is now the sun sets at about 10 in the night and in Norway after mid night. In fact Norway is called the land of the mid night sun...
Am feeling interesting!!! :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:
Can you say a few more words?
Sandhya Norway is a very beautiful country and known for its tough sea men who were one of the first to travel the earth .I was there last year and was amazed to see the bright sun at 11 pm and then gradually fades away at around 12 pm...

You wont believe this , but the sun is up by about 5 am or sometimes even earlier..It is amazing since we have more o less the same set routine for sun rise and sun set..

cross connection lol, I was talking about Norway, not about America...
I have read somewhere that in Greenland,the sun doesn't set for 6 months and for 6 months it doesn't rises.So,this means that there is half of the year remains shining and half of the year is full of darkness.
Yes, i also read so, though not sure!!
What about polar regions???? Ice will melt if sun rises. Isn't it?
Then....???
Why are you so surprised??? Haven't you learned geography in school?
When I was in England, it was the summer season and hence daylight remained until 10 in the night and sun rose at 4 am every day!! Extremely difficult to adjust and adapt!!
Kalyaniji,we haven't went to any other part of the world,which expeienced such things.So,its new for us and we indians when see something different gets excited to know about that things. :)

Forget each and every geography class ;)
Actually I have not deeply thought about this.
I want to know if it was same for all seasons in England...or day/night length keep changing???

Since England is in the northern hemisphere of course, the winters are long and harsh and there is a limited period of summer during which it is not always sunny and it keeps raining anytime and almost every day! Depending on those factors, the length or day and night does change!

But will it vary for hours????
I mean....day/night length maximum varies by one hour. What about England?
Also, what's the day/night length there? How many hours each, approximately???

Well, calculate yourself....in summer daylight is from morning 4 to 10 in the night and the exact opposite in winter, the night time is about the same length as the daylight in summer!!

True!! But I feel we should occasionally go out and experience the world! If I had a lot of money, all I would be doing is travelling to far off places and experiencing life!
