About the time in Vostok Station
Clocks in Vostok Station stay put all year. There is no summer-time switch to remember, so UTC +5 is what you will get in January and in July alike — useful if you book recurring calls with people in Antarctica.
Vostok Station runs on Antarctica/Vostok, 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 09:25 and sunset at 10:27 local time, giving 1h 02m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (-78.46, 106.84) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Vostok Station.
