Happy solstice everyone!

Random fact: sunrise has already started getting later each day, a few days ago, but sunsets won't start getting earlier for a few days yet [1]. Wonder if those two days (earliest sunrise, latest sunset) have actual names?

here's a chart (http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/astronomy.html?n=136&obj=sun&month=6&year=2005&day=1). i would guess the 17th or something is actually the earliest sunrise, but it doesn't show seconds. also the latest sunset there is probably the 25th.
