The antipode of Vitoria de Santo Antao

Dig straight through the centre of the Earth from Vitoria de Santo Antao, Brazil and you come out at 8.12 degrees north, 144.71 degrees east. That point is in the Indian Ocean. The nearest city in our catalogue to it is Jayapura, Indonesia, 1,264 km away from the antipode itself, where the clock currently reads 4:41 pm on Monday.

The antipode is worked out by flipping the latitude across the equator and swinging the longitude a half turn: 8.12 degrees south becomes 8.12 degrees north, and 35.29 degrees west becomes 144.71 degrees east. Two thirds of the planet is ocean and the land is unevenly spread, so most antipodes are open water: Vitoria de Santo Antao is no exception. The local time at the antipode runs close to UTC+9, roughly twelve hours from Vitoria de Santo Antao, because a half turn of longitude is a half turn of the day.

Sunrise and sunset in Vitoria de Santo Antao

The dedicated page for this city carries the month by month table, the longest and shortest days of 2026, the golden and blue hour bands at both ends of the day, and all three twilight stages: sunrise and sunset times in Vitoria de Santo Antao.

Sun and moon in Vitoria de Santo Antao today

The sun is up in Vitoria de Santo Antao for 12 hours 9 minutes today, from 5:07 am to 5:16 pm. The moon sets in Vitoria de Santo Antao at 6:17 am and comes up again at 7:03 pm. The next phase is the last quarter on October 3, 2026. It is 95% lit at the moment, a waning gibbous, thinning by about 4.5 percentage points a day.

Twilight is graded by how far the sun has dropped below the horizon. Civil twilight ends six degrees down, which is roughly the point at which you need a light to read outside. Nautical twilight ends at twelve degrees, when the horizon at sea stops being usable for a sextant sight. Astronomical twilight ends at eighteen degrees, which is full darkness for an observer.

Golden hour is the stretch with the sun between six degrees above the horizon and four below it, and blue hour runs from there down to six degrees below. Neither is literally an hour: each is as long as the sun takes to cross those few degrees, which is minutes near the equator and can be most of the evening at high latitude.

Moonrise and moonset are computed to the moment the moon's upper edge touches a flat horizon, allowing for refraction, for the size of the disc and for the moon's parallax, which together put the centre of the moon at 0.125 degrees above the horizon at the instant it rises. That is a different horizon from the one sunrise uses, and it is why a moonrise time cannot be worked out with a sunrise formula.

Prayer times in Vitoria de Santo Antao

Seven days from September 28, 2026, computed for Vitoria de Santo Antao, Brazil at 8.12 degrees south, 35.29 degrees west, on the clock of America/Recife. The method is Muslim World League (Muslim World League, Mecca), which puts Fajr at 18.0 degrees below the horizon and Isha at 17.0 degrees. Asr uses the Standard shadow ratio of 1, which is the Shafi'i, Maliki and Hanbali position.

Dhuhr is solar noon at Vitoria de Santo Antao, Brazil, the instant the Sun crosses the local meridian, so it moves with longitude inside the time zone and with the equation of time through the year rather than sitting at a fixed clock reading. Sunrise and Maghrib are the standard refracted horizon, the same 0.833 degrees every almanac uses. Every figure above is computed from the Sun's position for this exact coordinate; none of it is copied from a table.

Different methods disagree, and that is expected rather than an error. Fajr under ISNA at 15 degrees comes later than Fajr under Egyptian General Authority of Survey at 19.5 degrees, by twenty minutes or more depending on latitude and season. Follow whichever your local mosque follows.

The bearing is measured from true north, not magnetic north.
