About the time in Bochum
If you are coordinating from another country, the shortcut is the working window: a normal Bochum day of 09:00–17:00 falls between 07:00–15:00 UTC. Convert your own hours into UTC once and you can tell at a glance whether someone there is likely to be at their desk.
Sunrise today lands at 06:29 and sunset at 08:38 local time, giving 14h 10m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (51.48, 7.22) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Bochum.
Bochum sits at latitude 51.48, in the temperate-north band, so day length here swings sharply between midwinter and midsummer — today's 14h 10m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
