Sunlight scattered in the upper
atmosphere illuminates the lower atmosphere, and the surface of the
Earth is neither completely lit nor completely dark. The sun itself is not actually visible because it is below the
horizon.

Definitions
Various definitions of twilight
Twilight is defined according to the
solar elevation angle θs, which is the position of the geometric center of the
sun relative to the horizon. There are three established and widely accepted
subcategories of twilight: civil twilight (brightest), nautical twilight, and astronomical twilight (darkest).
| Definition |
Sun's centre relative to mathematical horizon[2] |
| Day |
-0° 50' ≤ θs |
| Sun's lower limb at horizon |
θs = -0° 20' |
| Center of Sun's disk at horizon |
θs = -0° 35' |
| Sun's upper limb at horizon |
θs = -0° 50' |
| Civil twilight |
-6° ≤ θs < -0° 50' |
| Nautical twilight |
-12° ≤ θs < -6° |
| Astronomical twilight |
-18° ≤ θs < -12° |
| Night |
θs < -18° |
Note that if the sun is 8½ degrees below the horizon, it provides the same level of illumination to the surface of the Earth as a full moon directly overhead.
Civil twilight
Under civil twilight circumstances, the horizon is clearly visible, and terrestrial objects are easily perceptible, without artificial light.

A military unit may treat BMNT and EENT with heightened security (i.e. a process called "stand to" in which everyone pulls security). This is partially due to tactics dating back to the
French and Indian War (part of the
Seven Year's War of 1756-1763), when combatants on both sides would use BMNT and EENT to launch attacks.

Theoretically, the dimmest stars ever visible to the naked eye—those of the sixth
magnitude—will appear in the evening once the sun falls more than 18° below the horizon (i.e. when
astronomical dusk occurs) and disappear when the sun moves to within 18° of the horizon in the morning (when
astronomical dawn occurs).

Length
The number of daylight hours depends on the latitude and time of year. There are brief times in March and September where continuous daylight exists at locations near either pole.
The length of twilight after sunset and before sunrise is heavily influenced by the
latitude of the observer. In the
Arctic and
Antarctic regions, twilight (if at all) can last for several hours.

The precise position of the polar circles, and thus of the regions where twilight can continue through local midnight, varies slightly from year to year with Earth's
axial tilt. The lowest latitudes at which the various twilights can continue through local midnight are approximately 60.561° ( 60° 33’ 43” ) for civil twilight, 54.561° ( 54° 33’ 43” ) for nautical twilight and 48.561° ( 48° 33’ 43” ) for astronomical twilight.
[3][4]
These are the largest cities, of their respective countries, where the various twilights can continue through local midnight:
- Nautical twilight from civil dusk to civil dawn: Petropavl, Moscow, Vicebsk, Vilnius, Riga, Tallinn, Wejherowo, Flensburg, Helsinki, Stockholm, Copenhagen, Oslo, Newcastle upon Tyne, Glasgow, Belfast, Letterkenny, Grande Prairie, Juneau, Ushuaia and Puerto Williams.
- Astronomical twilight from nautical dusk to nautical dawn: Hulun Buir, Erdenet, Astana, Samara, Kiev, Minsk, Warsaw, Košice, Zwettl, Prague, Berlin, Paris, Luxembourg city, Brussels, Amsterdam, London, Cardiff, Dublin, Calgary, Vancouver, Bellingham, Rio Gallegos and Punta Arenas.
Although Helsinki, Oslo, Stockholm, Tallinn and
Saint Petersburg do not actually get civil twilight from sunset to sunrise, in mid summer they do have noticeably lighter skies at night (
white nights).

Dust high in the atmosphere scatters light to the night side of the planet. Similar twilights are seen on Earth following major volcanic eruptions.
