About the time in Santiago
Sunrise today lands at 06:09 and sunset at 05:52 local time, giving 11h 43m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (-14.81, -74.64) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Santiago.
Around 18 people live in Santiago, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
Santiago sits at latitude -14.81, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 11h 43m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
