Question

difference between summer solastic and winter solastic

Answer 1

When it is tilted away from the Sun, it is winter in the northern hemisphere. In between we have autumn and spring. The day that the Earth's North Pole is tilted closest to the sun is called the summer solstice. This is the longest day (most daylight hours) of the year for people living in the northern hemisphere.

The summer solstice marks the longest day of the calendar year and the beginning of summer in the Northern Hemisphere. ... Today the term solstice is used to describe the exact moment when the sun reaches its northernmost point (around June 21) or southernmost point (around December 22) from the earth's equator.
