Explain exactly how three of the southernmost cities in the Southern Hemisphere all experienced in excess of 14-hr days and less than 6-hr nights when each location occupies a different "third" of the flat-earth map? How was there no night-time for Punta Arenas the same day the sun was shining brightly in both Invercargill AND Cape Town? Wouldn't the sun have to have left that "third" of the map COMPLETELY in order for the other two cities each to have experienced over 14 hrs of direct sunlight that day?
Real "quality" answers too! But as well as answering the day length in those locations, what about the directions of both sunrise and sunset on Dec 21, 2016 (Summer Solstice in the Southern Hemisphere).
(1) Punta Arenas, Chile (southernmost city south in South America)
Sunrise 5:12 am at 133°, Sunset 10:11 pm at 227°.

This map shows the locations of these three towns: (http://i1075.photobucket.com/albums/w433/RabDownunder/Maps/Ice%20Ring%20Map%20with%20Punta%20Arenas%20Invergargill%20and%20Cape%20Town_zps1cez0htu.png)
Ice Ring Map with Punta Arenas, Invergargill and Cape Town
These three towns are well south of the Tropic of Capricorn and at the summer solstice the sun is always over the Tropic of Capricorn.
So how is it possible for the sun to rise and set so far south of east or west?
