About the time in Jita
Sunrise today lands at 06:16 and sunset at 06:42 local time, giving 12h 26m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (11.20, 8.51) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Jita.
Jita runs on Africa/Lagos, which puts the city UTC +1 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.
Jita sits at latitude 11.20, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 26m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
