If there were no atmosphere what will happen to length of day?
Sunlight bounces around in the atmosphere, extending the length of the day both in the morning (before sunrise) and after sunset, roughly 30 minutes or so. Without an atmosphere it would be pitch black as soon as the sun set far enough for light to extinguish from any mountain slope eastward of you--the total day would be about an hour shorter.
What is The lightest part of a shadow called?
I believe you mean the lightest part of Earth's shadow casted upon the moon and the answer to that would be: The lightest part of Earth's shadow upon the moon is called the penumbra. In fact any shadow is divided between that totally blocked (umbra) and partially blocked by the light source (penumbra) so the Penumbra can indeed be the moons partial shadow on the earth during a partial or total solar eclipse

What is being personified is a failing grade in Geography !The sunrise gets to Kirkenes in Northern Norway beforethe Swedish coast and the Swedish coast before the farmland. The sun rises over Norway about two hours before the Norwegian Sea, which is well to the west.Note. The above data are for around the Equinoxes. For today's date (December 27) Kirkenes won't have a sunrise because it is in permanent darkness. In mid summer there will be no sunrise because it is daylight for 24 hours.
