The times of the rising and the setting of the upper solar limb as given in astronomical almanacs correct for this by using the more general equation cos ω ∘ = sin a − sin ϕ × sin δ cos ϕ × cos δ {\displaystyle \cos \omega _{\circ }={\dfrac {\sin a-\sin \phi \times \sin \delta }{\cos \phi \times \cos \delta }}}
Folkestone Optimist Hockey Club are based at Three Hills Sports Park (along with the cricket and netball clubs). [49] There is a Bowls Club [50] and a Running Club [51] based in the town.

Calculate the sunset time, which is the solar noon time plus the sunset hour angle in degree divided by 15; Use the sunset time as input to the solar geometry routine to get the solar azimuth angle at sunset. An interesting feature in the figure on the right is apparent hemispheric symmetry in regions where daily sunrise and sunset actually occur.

It generally indicates the period of time when the sun is close to the horizon and comprises the periods of civil, nautical and astronomical twilight. The exact times when evening begins and ends are subjective and depend on location and time of year. It may be used colloquially to include the last waning daytime shortly before sunset. [2]
Leas Cliff, Folkestone. Largely artificial cliff-side gardens laid out in Victorian times along the winding path down the cliff from the bandstand on the Leas to the amphitheatre.
