The sun sets north of west from March 21 to September 21, reaching its northernmost

extreme on June 21.

This period constitutes the cold half in the Southern Hemisphere ... Autumn and Winter ...

and the warm half in the northern hemisphere ... Spring and Summer. It's also the period

during which the sun never rises at the south pole, and never sets at the north one.

When you go for a walk in the evening you can see the setting sun.which direction are walking in?

Basically, the Sun rises in the East, and sets in the West, so you would be walking towards the West. But, the arc is longer in Summer, so the Sun may rise in the North-east, pass to the South at noon, and set in the North-west, so the Sun takes longer to rise and set. It is during the shorter days of Winter that the Sun makes the shortest arc of South-east to South-west as viewed in the Northern Hemisphere.


How long does one mercury day take?

58.65 Earth daysIt depends. The orbit of mercury is very elliptical. this means that at times in it's orbit is is going faster (and nearer) the Sun than at other times. This changing speed means that when Mercury is closest to the Sun it is moving faster than it is rotating. This leads to an interesting phenominon.From a certain point on Mercury you would see the Sun rise in the east, apear to slow down and then go backwards and set again in the east. Only to rise in the east again move across the sky and set in the west. All in one day. Elsewhere on Mercury you would see the Sun set in the west and then rise from the west,then set again or you would see it rise in the east, change direction twice, and the set in the west.
