The Newgrange burial site was designed and built with a special opening that would allow sunlight to penetrate the main chamber on the shortest days of the year, around December 21st. As the sun rises higher the beam widens to illuminate the whole room. The entire event lasts for only 17 minutes. Newgrange is documented as having been constructed over 5000 years ago, before Stonehenge and the Great Pyramids. Weather predications for tomorrow say that the skies will be clear.
