This visualization maps the geographic regions where the sun reaches a specific elevation angle (60.87°) at a given UTC time, showing both southern and northern hemisphere latitude ranges as colored polygons on a folium map. The code uses Skyfield’s ephemeris data to compute solar altitude for each longitude across a grid of latitudes, then identifies matching latitude bands within a tolerance. Folium renders the resulting polygons in red and blue, with the map centered at [0,0] and a zoom level of 2, illustrating the global path of equal solar elevation.
