A new take on sunsets and sunrises

From Nights, 10:35 pm on 22 December 2021

Today is the longest day of the year in the Southern Hemisphere.... also the shortest night

Our summer solstice officially took place at 4-59 this morning... marking the beginning of the astronomical summer.

Dr Ian Griffin, director of the Otago Museum has marked the occasion with a very special project he's been working on for six months.
