A Moment Shared by (Almost) Everyone on Earth

🌎 July 8, 2025 – 11:10 UTC
At this exact moment, 99% of the world’s population was experiencing some form of daylight or twilight — all at once.

This rare phenomenon isn’t a glitch or myth. It’s real — and made possible by the tilt of Earth’s axis and our planet’s position near the June solstice.

☀️ While parts of the Americas woke to morning light, Asia, Africa, and Europe basked in broad daylight or evening twilight. Only a few regions — mainly deep in the Pacific and parts of New Zealand — were fully in darkness.

📈 This alignment is so precise, it happens only every few decades, and was verified by timeanddate.com.

Next time you feel small on this spinning rock, remember — for one brief moment, nearly all of humanity stood together in the light. 🌎✨
