Today is the northern SummerSolstice, marking a new season as well as the longest day in the northern hemisphere. While it’s a time to enjoy the warmth & light, it also signifies an astronomical event caused by the tilt of Earth’s axis. 🌍☀️ Read more:

The June solstice gives us the green light to welcome the summer season in the Northern Hemisphere and winter season in the Southern Hemisphere. This happens June 21, 2021, at 03:32 UTC,In meteorology, summer begins on June 1. Yet, June 21 is perhaps the most widely recognized day when summer starts in the northern half of our planet and winter starts in the southern half.

Along with marking the beginning of summer, this will also be the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere. We will begin to see early dawns, long days, late sunsets, and short nights. On the solstice, our Sun will reach its highest point as it crosses the sky. Meanwhile, south of the equator, winter will begin!

Very interesting.

Enjoying a pleasant Winter Solstice in Australia

When are you going to be honest with yourselves? Outerspace is not that vast. EVERYTHING FULL CIRCLE WITH A LINE THROUGH THE CENTER, and THAT is the secret and answer to life. Figure something then I get him sayLove till there is no more and fuck the Government every hater! 💯

axial tilt hit it

But it does not look like it’s tilting according to the diagram it looks like it’s going higher and lower of the equator of the sun.

It seems that the wobble is causing a sizable change based on sunset shadows cast.

The longest day...so there will be less time to commit crimes under cover of darkness. How inconvenient.

Hi guys This msg will for all members of NASA, and who the issues concerning, for those who visualized moon split, I would like to give you same information for further investigation. Hint.. when, how, and why the occasion was happened.

Why you showing fake fakenews Fake Knowledge?

I don't like SummerSolistice beacuse I am nyctophile.

Hhhhhhhh😜🤪🤣🤣🤣

India may not be enjoy this to the fullest. Coz we are not proper in Northern Hemisphere..we are lil bit to the east

Never miss the duality of creation of nature in spacetime. Dedicated to Einstein the Great.

'it also signifies an astronomical event' oh yes it does, NASA, tell them about this SPECIAL TIME OF YEAR. I'll be here with my grape juice and crackers.

What about us southern hemispherians?

nasa = flat earthers both are science deniers 😆

Baaaaaa

donovick I love long days. I'm weird, but I think the summer solstice is one of my favorite times of the year.

Enjoy? It's hotter than a Nats ass on the surface of a frying pan.

In Japan today is 夏至の日. SummerSolstice is 夏至の日. I like summer 🌻🌞✨

What? Are you from. 😂🤣

The Earth is tilted, at, about 23° causing seasons. I don’t believe the Earth’s orbit is this tilted? neiltyson ?

There is a duality there Sir..!! The spacetime event is significant.. as magic of TIME at PLAY Kudos to the contributors Divine blessings

ShanaticManish ☝️

joelpollak And now it's already dark in New York, so the countdown begins to Dec. 21

tassiedevil Meanwhile, in the Southern Hemisphere... Happy WinterSolstice ☀️

Longest day? Since when was any day more/less than 24hrs?

3 important events today: Solistice, Yoga Day and the most lucky day in the world as per history...let's keep the tradition going and utilize every minute of extra light today to enlighten our lives and remove the darkness within...'let the extra light be with you'...

Thanks for sharing....I now have perfect understanding about longer day and shorter night. Thanks Davis

Southern Hemisphere is oddly dark during their summer solstice (dec)...

If the tilt of the Earth can cause such dramatic temperature changes in the N Hemisphere during Summer months then why doesn't the relative distance of the Earth from the Sun cause even greater temperature changes? We're currently 1.5 million miles FURTHER away than average.

We owe a debt of gratitude to whatever heavenly body knocked the crap out of Earth to cause the tilt.

Concerteza,dando assim o início de Verão para o hemisferio.

Amazing and we don't even feel the movement!

filoou24 C'est a cause de la migration des peuples la terre est déséquilibrées , enfin je pense 🤔

NASA bs data is hilarious. And people buy it without even questioning it! 🤦🏼‍♂️

Idk why but the orbital plane being tilted and not the earth is very off putting to me.

It's lucky we're on the exact same orbit as that other planet with the december solstice. We should probably go there before trying mars. elonmusk

As time goes on, we all need to change our ways to put the brakes on Climate Change and Ozone Layer depletion. For the Ozone Layer: You can change your Chlorine pool into a saltwater one (Chlorine destroys the ozone layer).

* only in limited time zones. For UTC, which determines world time, it's tomorrow 🙋‍♂️

I don’t like your pic attached to the post. It makes the orbit of the earth appear to on a 23.5 deg tilt whilst the planet’s axis is perpendicular. That’s not what you’re saying. With the kind of responses to this post, absolute clarity has become a necessity.

Beautiful

next, we approach the apogee (furthest approach from the sun), on July 3. The reason why the solstices do not align with the perigee and apogee is due to Earth's orbit itself being inclined by 7* to the Sun's equator.

I have two ideas,the first idea is a self-charging smartphone and the second idea is a vacuum fuel engine. I wanted to know who is interested in investing in these two ideas?(If you know someone who is investing in ideas,please introduce me to them)

Sure thing boss 🃏🃏

We don’t really understand what you just said but… we are so ready for summer! 💦

Thank goodness for ~ 23°.

The summer solstice changed a little after Japan 2011 tsunami.

Enjoy this day!

WIRED thanks

Love this (or these) long day! No darkness at all. No problem to sleep, we are used to it. And today +32 degrees Celsius... Great!

🪐NASA🪐 Big day in Space 😍

👍👍👍👍

Wait, replouiegohmert is confused. The earth has an 'axis'?

I prefer when the trajectory is presented horizontally, and then the Axis inclination can be appreciated better.
