Darkness
Most people know that sunset is the time when the sun goes down. But did you know that the sun doesn't actually set? Instead, Earth rotates into darkness, giving us the illusion that the sun is setting. So what causes sunset?
Well, it's a combination of things. The Earth's atmosphere scatters sunlight in every direction, but blue and violet light are scattered more than other colors. This is why the sky is usually blue during the daytime. As the sun gets lower in the sky, the atmosphere becomes thicker and more dense.
This scattering of sunlight happens to a greater extent, and we see red and orange light more than blue and violet light. That's why sunset is usually a beautiful red or orange color. So next time you see sunset, remember that you're actually seeing Earth rotate into darkness!
Frenchboro is located in the Eastern Shore of Maryland, about halfway between Washington D.C. and Baltimore. Referred to as the "Gateway to the Eastern Shore," the city is noted for its natural beauty and cultural heritage.
With an elevation of just above sea level, Frenchboro has a temperate-continental climate that features warm summers and cold winters. The closest states are Pennsylvania to the north and Virginia to the south. The capital of Maryland is Annapolis.
The city is served by the Eastern Shore Regional Airport, which is just outside the city limits in Kent County. The University of Maryland's Frenchboro campus is located in the city as well, and the Eastern Shore Conservancy is headquartered in Frenchboro. The city's main commercial district is located along Forest Avenue downtown.
The city is home to a variety of art galleries, including the Judith and Jerome Fisher Visual Arts Center and the Frenchboro Artist Association. The city is also home to the Frenchboro Civic Theatre, the Frenchboro Golf Course, and the Frenchboro Towne Center.
}As the sun sets, the sky slowly grows dark. For many people, this is a time to relax and wind down for the day. But have you ever wondered exactly when it gets dark? The answer may surprise you.
Did you know that darkness actually begins long before the sun sets? As the sun gets lower in the sky, its light has to travel through more atmosphere. This filters out some of the blue light, making the sun look redder. At the same time, shadows get longer and darker. So by the time the sun finally dips below the horizon, darkness has already begun to fall.
Of course, not all places on Earth experience darkness at the same time. Near the equator, the sun sets and rises almost directly overhead. This means that there is less of a difference between daytime and nighttime. Closer to the poles, however, the sun stays low in the sky for much of the year. This leads to longer periods of darkness during wintertime.
