Seasons on Earth are a result of the planet’s 23.5-degree axial tilt as it orbits the Sun. 🌍☀️ This tilt causes varying sunlight angles throughout the year, giving each hemisphere its turn to experience summer or winter. When the Northern Hemisphere tilts toward the Sun, it enjoys direct sunlight and warmer days, while the Southern Hemisphere experiences cooler temperatures—and vice versa six months later. | The Galactic Void

When the earth's axis points towards the sun, it is summer for that hemisphere. When the earth's axis points away, winter can be expected. | The Science of Universe | Facebook
