About the time in Goddard
The zone identifier America/Chicago is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but America/Chicago keeps pointing at Chicago time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
Goddard runs on America/Chicago, which puts the city UTC −5 from Coordinated Universal Time right now. The clock at the top of this page is not copied from your device: it is anchored to our reference timestamp and re-rendered every second against the IANA time zone database, so it stays right even when a laptop or phone has quietly drifted.
Sunrise today lands at 06:52 and sunset at 08:13 local time, giving 13h 20m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (37.67, -97.56) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Goddard.
