The number of daylight hours we get per day has an impact on all sorts of things, ranging from our mood to agriculture and even nationwide energy consumption. Daylight Hours Explorer offers a simple way to figure out how many hours of daylight a given latitude receives at any time of the year.
You punch in your latitude, which you can easily find by Googling something like “latitude of Venezuela.” (Unless you’re somewhere else, in which case you might not be so curious about Venezuela.) Then, slide the slider (or drag the point on the graph) to the date that you’re interested in, and see how many hours of daylight you get.
You can also select a given date and drag the latitude slider to see how many hours of daylight various latitudes get. For instance, I am currently enjoying 12.9 hours of daylight per day, while my friends in Australia are getting only 11.2 hours.
