Tables and graphs are presented, with explanatory text, giving times of sunrise and sunset, duration of daylight, twilight and darkness, solar altitudes and azimuths, the Earth's shadow height, and related data frequently used at White Sands Missile Range. Because of increased interest in solar energy, a new section called solar radiation intensities has been included. (Author)
