Sunset Twilight
By Edhat Subscriber
Piqued by a comment for one of the sunset photos about prolonged sunsets and sunrises around the times of the equinoxes, I took a look at the durations of evening twilight at various times of the year in Santa Barbara. Just in case any sunrise/sunset watchers are interested, here's what I found.
For the duration, I used the time between the setting of the apparent upper limb of the Sun (assuming a flat horizon), and the end of astronomical twilight, when the Sun is 18 degrees below the horizon. It turns out that there is a major peak in the duration of twilight of around 1 hour and 46 minutes just after Summer Solstice in late June, and a minor peak of around 1 hour and 30 minutes just before Winter Solstice. There is a minimum of around 1 hour and 23 minutes in mid-October, just after the Autumnal Equinox, and another minimum of about 1 hour and 24 minutes in early March, just before the Vernal Equinox.
Horizon Elliptical Trainer - You Get
Horizon has a reputation second to none when it comes to developing home exercise machines, and have a long track record to boost. Elliptical machines are not the only products offered by Horizon, they produce stationary bikes, rowers, and treadmills for home use. A lot of these types of trainers offer features that you would get on trainers in a gym, but they will not cost you nowhere near as much.
Training on an elliptical machine is a great way of getting fit or losing those unwanted pounds. Due to the fact that an elliptical trainer forces you to use upper and lower body, you will burn a lot more calories than you would if you were just using your lower body, or just your upper body.
