I live in Perth, where our time zone is 2 hours behind Sydney. Will this 2 hour difference effect the start time and views using the Clock Process on the Astroplot chart?
Time is coordinated with the rotation of the Earth. When the Sun sets at 8 pm in Sydney, two hours later in Perth, the Sun will set at around 8 PM The same stars that rose above the Sydney horizon at 10 PM will also rise above the Perth horizon at 10 PM The rise and set times of stars are not exactly comparable from one time zone to the next. Variance occurs because longitude for a time zone is wide, and latitude also causes a difference. However, for a general guide of sky views across the Southern Hemisphere, the Astroplot ‘Clock Process’ is relevant to your place and time.
