Due to the Earth’s tilt and orbital eccentricity, “solar noon”—when the sun is highest in the sky—doesn’t always coincide with 12:00 PM local time. Factors like longitude within a time zone and the use of daylight saving can shift the solar noon point by several minutes. Some people search for ways to track true solar noon for gardening, prayer times, or simply curiosity about astronomical phenomena. Understanding these subtleties underlines the balance between standardized clocks and the natural progression of daylight.
