About the sun in Mission Bend
In Mission Bend, the longest day of 2026 is June 21, with 14h 03m of daylight, and the shortest is December 21, with 10h 14m: a difference of 3 hours 49 minutes. The earliest sunrise of the year is on June 10 (6:22 AM) and the latest sunset on June 30 (8:27 PM). These dates do not fall on the solstice because Earth's orbit is elliptical and its axis is tilted, so solar noon drifts through the year.
