knowledge: The time of sunset is defined in astronomy as the moment when the trailing edge of the Sun's disk disappears below the horizon.
response: Interesting. Did you know that the official time for sunset is when the last bit of the Sun's disk falls below the horizon?

That sounds right. Do you know the average time they last?
knowledge: Night occurs when the Sun reaches 18 degrees below the horizon and no longer illuminates the sky.
response: No, but I know that night is defined by when the Sun is 18 degrees under the horizon and is not illuminating the sky any more.

I never knew it was so technical. Do you know why it is so pretty?
knowledge: This morning twilight ''before sunrise'', is divided into three categories depending on the amount of sunlight that is present in the sky, which is determined by the angular distance of the centre of the Sun (degrees below the horizon) in the morning.
response: No, but I know that the "before sunrise" time is divided into three categories, which depend on how much sunlight is in the sky, which itself is related to how far the Sun is still below the horizon.

Ah, I see. Where is the best place to watch a sunset?
knowledge: The Sun will set exactly due west at the equator on the spring and fall equinoxes, each of which occurs only once a year.
response: I don't know that, either, but I know that during spring and fall equinoxes, the sun sets exactly on the west at the equator..
