We report: today, the sunset seemingly took all afternoon to happen. We looked to the horizon at some point, and saw a whole portion of the sky tinted yellow that remained there for the rest of the day. We are getting close to the winter solstice. https://t.co/L9zNfQYua0

The Winter Solstice has been observed at Newgrange in the UNESCO World Heritage site of Brú na Bóinne for over 5,000 years. The passage tomb was built so that every year during the Winter Solstice, the rising sun would illuminate the inside passage of the burial chamber. https://t.co/g2Y82ZTG5R

Today is 21st December, the longest night and the shortest day of the year. Today we will be basking in roughly ten hours of daylight. It's called #WinterSolastice as the #Sun is the farthest away from places in the respective hemispheres and shines on the #TropicalofCapricorn. https://t.co/dUCwLnAQum
