Nautical twilight is when the horizon can still be seen at sea; after astronomical dusk the sky is fully dark. Calculated for Nanjing, China (32.06° N, 118.78° E, GeoNames' point for the city) in China Standard Time. Times assume a level horizon at sea level; hills, buildings and weather can change what you see.
