Sunrise, Sunset Can Be Calculated on Web
The Seventh-day Adventist Church has launched a World Wide Web page that allows people to calculate precise sunrise and sunset times for any place in the world for any date.
“The sunset calculator provides an easy user interface for anyone to access sunrise and sunset times for any given day and for any given spot on the globe,” said Jonathan Gallagher, news director at the denomination’s headquarters in Silver Spring, Md.
“This calculator will be helpful not only to Adventists, but also to many others for whom knowledge of daylight time is important, and we are delighted to provide this as a service on the Web.”
Gallagher noted that Adventists observe the seventh-day Sabbath from sunset Friday to sunset Saturday, so knowing precise sunset times is significant.
