That all depends on where you are located.\n\nTo generate a calendar with sunrise/sunset times for your area, go to the following website:\n\nhttp://www.sunrisesunset.com/custom_srss_calendar.asp

Western Australia is a bit over 8 hours ahead of Devon in "Sun time" so if they are watching the sun low in the western sky at 6PM, it's still only 10AM in Devon, so you can clearly see the Sun as well.\n\nEven Australia's East coast is only 11 hours ahead, so their 6PM sun is our 7AM, so provided it's a time of year when the Sun is actually up by 7AM, we can both look at the same sun.\n\nSimilar conditions apply to the Moon, though the timing is a bit more complicated as the moon rises and falls progressively later each day.

The Earth is tilted by 23 1/2 degrees. During the Summer months, the north is pointed toward the Sun allowing more direct sunlight. During the winter, we are tilted away from the sun so the sunlight is more indirect as the sun seems lower in the sky. There are 4 cardinal points in our calender; Summer solstice, autumnal equinox, winter solstice and vernal equinox. Beginning of summer, fall, winter and spring. This coincides with the position of earth as it goes around the sun. Each of the cardinal days can take place over a three day period, 20th, 21st, 22nd. On June 20th, summer solstice, it is the longest day of the year. It is also the day that the north pole is pointing directly at the sun. The next day it will have passed this point and start pointing away from the sun, hence, the days will also start getting shorter. For further info, feel free to email me, orion_1812@yahoo.com

They built observatories.  They were not like the ones we have today, but the marked where and when certian things would happen.  The idea is simple, though its often lost with modern people: The sun doesnt rise in the same place each day.\n\nThe pivotal dates are Dec 21, Mar 21, June 21 and Sept 21.  On december 21, the sun will rise as far to the south that it can (the solstice). Where I live, we only have 8-9 hours of sunlight then.  As the new year progresses, then the sun will rise further north.  On Mar 21, its half way on its trip and we have 12-hrs of sun (the equinox).  On June 21 then the sun is as far north as possible at sunrise (the solsitce) and then it turns back around. Of course on Sept 21 we have 12-hr days again and the cycle continues.\n\nPeople would just make a place to sit with rocks all around in a circle.  Where the rocks were showed when these dates were near.

Yes: the sun will rise...

The Sun is slightly closer in January at perihelion (147.5 million kilometers) and slightly farther away in July at aphelion (152.6 million kilometers).  Earth’s slightly elliptical orbit is not responsible for our seasons, however.\n\nEarth’s axis is tilted 23.5 degrees with respect to the plane of our orbit around the Sun.  Summer occurs when one’s hemisphere is tilted toward the Sun; winter when it’s tipped away.  Thus, seasons in Australia are reversed relative to North America—summer in Melbourne is winter in New York, and vice-versa.  (I’m sadly aware of that effect, since I’m travelling to Melbourne in a few months.)\n\n\nRyan Wyatt\nRose Center for Earth & Space\nNew York, New York

The below link shows some upcoming ones.\n\nBeing in the southern hemisphere, I would think you should be able to see all except the Lyrid shower.

It depends on exactly where you live and what time of year it is, but right now the sun rises at about 5:45 where I live.

Because when the sun is up in korea, it can't be in the sky at the same time in england.  So when it is noon in korea, it's around midnight in england.  When the sun is coming up in korea (the sun comes up in the east) it is still 3 hours from coming up in india.  Since midnight is the beginning of a new day, the date is different as well.

The sun is directly overhead in the tropics region, between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn.  Since Gettysburg is north of this region, the sun can never set in true west.  The closest would be on the summer solstice.

Since this is for school, I think you should do your own research, don't you?  Here's a link that may help answer your question.  Also bear in mind that seasons in the Southern Hemisphere are opposite of the Northern--it's summer in Australia right now!

Because it has been darkest for longest at this time. Why is the high at around 6:00 pm? same reason. The sun has been at its peak for longest then.

Above the Arctic circle, the Sun shines all day or sets for a short period of time during the Northern hemisphere summer.\nBelow the Antarctic circle, same but during the Southern Hemisphere summer.

Yes it is.  About 0915 in the morning on the Gold Coast!   Here in Scotland it's just turned Easter.  Happy Easter to you too!
