About sunrise, sunset & moon times in Leganés

Knowing exactly when the sun rises and sets - and how the light changes before and after - helps with everything from planning a hike to catching the best photo. This page combines the official sunrise and sunset times with astronomically calculated twilight and golden-hour windows.

Civil, nautical and astronomical twilight mark how far the sun sits below the horizon, from a bright sky good for outdoor activity down to fully dark skies for stargazing. The golden hour gives warm, soft light; the blue hour, the cool glow just before sunrise and after sunset.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about sun and moon times.

What is the golden hour?

The golden hour is the period shortly after sunrise and before sunset when the sun is low (below about 6 degrees), giving warm, soft, directional light that photographers prize.

What is the difference between civil, nautical and astronomical twilight?

They mark how far the sun is below the horizon: civil twilight (0 to 6 degrees) is bright enough for most outdoor activity, nautical (6 to 12) leaves the horizon faintly visible, and astronomical (12 to 18) is when the sky becomes fully dark for stargazing.

Why does the day length change each day?

As the Earth orbits the Sun with its tilted axis, the length of daylight grows toward the summer solstice and shrinks toward the winter solstice. The daily change is largest around the equinoxes and smallest near the solstices.

How is the moon illumination calculated?

Illumination is the percentage of the Moon's visible disc lit by the Sun, from 0% at new moon to 100% at full moon. It is the same everywhere on Earth on a given date.
