Pluto orbits on the fringes of our solar system, billions of miles away. Sunlight is much weaker on Pluto than on Earth, yet it isn't completely dark. For just a moment near dawn and dusk each day, the illumination on Earth matches that of high noon on Pluto. We call this Pluto Time. See when your next Pluto Time occurs! • Automatically calculate the next Pluto Time based on your location. • Receive live timing updates and interact with accurate planetary textures. Track multiple cities around the world! • See when Pluto Time occurs in other cities simultaneously in the Saved Locations tab. • Add, remove, reorder, and swap between locations instantly. Choose when and how to be notified! • Configure notifications, reminders, and clock formats in the Settings tab. • Enabling notifications "Before Midday" will notify you when Pluto Times occur before 12 PM noon. • Enabling notifications "After Midday" will notify you when Pluto Times occur after 12 PM noon. Over 40 other planets and moons to track! • The same irradiance calculations for Pluto can be used for alternative Solar System planets, moons, dwarf planets, and dwarf moons. • Choose from every major body in the Solar System by selecting your active body from the Solar System tab.
