When the sun is setting where you are, it is rising along the same shadow line between night and day but on the opposite side of the world. That includes the point on the earth directly opposite your location.

If you know your global coordinates, to get the coordinates of the point opposite you on the globe...

  1. Change north latitude to south latitude or south latitude to north latitude (keep the same magnitude of the latitude).
  2. Change east longitude to west longitude or west longitude to east longitude.
  3. Subtract the magnitude of your longitude from 180°.
