I have never managed to come up with the reason for the sunrise and sunset earliest and latest events to come at different times. I suspect that it might be something to do with the Earth’s axis not being aligned with the orbital path, but I don’t know. Any answers for the New Year?
Anyway, great work with the surface stations and I hope you had a great Christmas

You have had one hell of a year, if I may say so. Talk about “making a difference”!
