Puksoozero prayer times overview
The Puksoozero prayer schedule is calculated based on the city's local data, so it may differ from neighbouring localities even within the same time zone.
Puksoozero prayer times are tied to the local time zone, which is Same as Moscow time (MSK). For this reason, the prayer schedule here cannot be directly compared with Moscow time.
For Puksoozero the coordinates 62.5903°N and 40.6066°E are used. Latitude determines the seasonal length of the day, while longitude determines solar noon and the shift of the Dhuhr time. This latitude is close to the white nights zone, so in summer the interval between Maghrib and Fajr may shrink considerably.
Even if two cities are in the same time zone, prayer times may differ due to latitude and longitude. During the period of bright nights, it is especially important to monitor the Fajr and Isha times carefully.
According to today's schedule for Puksoozero, the sun rises at 03:53, while the Maghrib time begins at 20:53. 17 часов passes between these events. Right now the day is long, so Maghrib begins later, while the night interval shortens.
The night interval in Puksoozero begins after Maghrib at 20:53 and lasts until Fajr at 02:01. Its duration is 5 часов 8 минут. The night is very short, so the time for Isha, Witr and suhur is limited.

Questions about prayer times in Puksoozero
Each city has its own geographic coordinates, and it is precisely by them that sunrise and sunset are calculated. Because the Earth rotates and its axis is tilted, prayer times at different points cannot coincide. Latitude determines the length of day and night, longitude determines the moment the sun passes certain positions, and the time zone brings the calculation to local time. The sum of these factors makes the schedule unique for each city.
The prayer schedule in Puksoozero is recalculated daily, because the position of the sun changes throughout the year. The daylight length gradually increases in spring and shortens in autumn, so the Fajr and Maghrib times shift literally every day. The fastest changes occur during the spring and autumn equinoxes. Therefore, we recommend checking with the current data daily.
Yes, this schedule is also designed for those who fast. Suhur must be completed before Fajr (02:01) begins, which marks the start of the morning prayer time. Iftar begins from the moment of Maghrib (20:53) — at sunset. Keep in mind: these values shift daily throughout Ramadan, so it is advisable to determine the current time according to the new schedule every morning and evening.
The location of Puksoozero at northern latitudes creates difficulty for the standard calculation. In the summer season the sun does not descend deep enough below the horizon, so the astronomical night becomes extremely short or entirely bright — the natural boundaries of Fajr and Isha cannot be determined in the usual way. Therefore, for such cities, a specially developed high-latitude adjustment is applied when setting the morning and night prayer times.
