Today
Each vertical slice of the year is a day, running Jan 1 through Dec 31. The two winding lines are the sunrise and sunset times for that day — where they pinch together is the shortest day, where they spread furthest apart is the longest. Any abrupt jump marks a daylight saving transition.

How to read this
Each colored region shows which light band covers that part of the world at the selected date and time. Hover (or touch and drag) anywhere on the map for the exact coordinates, band, and sun elevation there. The grid lines are latitude/longitude for reference (dashed lines mark the equator, the tropics, and the arctic/antarctic circles) -- this is a coordinate graticule, not a coastline map.
