Why sunset time shifts in Blue Hill

Sunset drifts through the year with Earth’s ~23.4° axial tilt — see the full daylight explainer.

In Blue Hill, the longest day carries about 15h 3m of daylight and the shortest just 9h 17m — a swing of roughly 5h 46m between the June and December solstices. The farther a place sits from the equator, the wider that gap; the pace also isn’t steady, moving fastest near the equinoxes and barely at all near the solstices. Every figure here is computed from the sun’s position for Blue Hill’s exact coordinates, in local time.
