Explanation:

• The Sun's "declination" seems to ""stand still"", i.e., before changing its course that is, the "seasonally shifting" "daily path" of the Sun (seen from Earth). A "solstice" is an event taking place when the "Sun" appears to reach its most "southerly/northerly" "excursion" relative to the "celestial equator" on the "celestial sphere"Every year, on 21st June & 21st December, two solstices occur
• The "Equinox" takes place as the"Sun" is over (vertically) the "Equator" directly. The sun shines on the 'Southern & Northern hemisphere" at this time as well. The planet is experiencing "day & night" at this time. Twice a year, equinoxes happen. "March & September" are the months
• During the "Summer Solstice" in the "latitude" known as "the Tropic of Cancer" , the "Sun" is immediately above at "high noon." The "Summer Solstice" is generally on the "Tropics of cancer" in the "northern hemisphere", 21st June.  "Tropic of Capricorn"  in the "Southern Hemisphere", normally falls on 21st December.
• On "21st March& 23rd September" direct rays of the sun fall on the equator. At this "position" the "poles" are "not tilted" "towards the Sun"; therefore, the "entire earth" experiences "equal days" & "equal nights".
• Winter (Early sunset, short days, &. long nights) and summer are the effects of Earth's inclination – not because of our "distance" from the "Sun". The "Northern Hemisphere" is the most distant to the "Sun" during the year at the "December Solstice". The "days" became "longer" & the "nights" "shorter" following the 'Winter Solstice".
