Sun Trajectory

Sun Trajectory is the tracking of the suns position over time relative to Earth.  This can be done by anyone and results will be specific based on location as well as season.

To check it out for yourself:

This link is pretty neat and will show date specific sun patterns.

In Macon, GA on October 30th the sun rose at at 7:54AM and set at 6:46PM.  By facing North we can track the location of the sun as it rises in the East and sets in the West.  The position of the sun will shift visibly from right to left relative to our perspective.

Below is my diagram of Macon
