One of the two points in the ecliptic at which the sun is furthest from the celestial equator. This corresponds to one of two days in the year when the day is either longest or shortest, sunsted, when the Sun appears furthest north or south of the celestial equator, The times of the maximum and minimum solar declination Summer Solstice occurs on about June 23, when the declination of the sun is +23 5 degrees, and marks the first day of summer Winter Solstice occurs on about December 23, when the declination of the sun is -23 5 degrees, and marks the first day of winter These are, respectively, the longest and shortest days of the year, occurs when the tilt of the Earth is in line with the direction between the Earth and the Sun Summer solstice occurs on the longest day of the year; winter solstice occurs on the shortest day, The position of the sun when farthest north (summer solstice) or farthest south (wintern solstice), The time of the sun's passing the solstices, or solstitial points, namely, about June 21 and December 21, The times when the sun reaches its greatest declination away from the equator The times of longest day and shortest night, and vice versa Occur in June and December, Either of two times of the year, in June and December, when the sun is farthest from the celestial equator, This is the time when the Sun reaches its most northerly or southerly point (around June 21st & December 22nd respectively ) It marks the beginning of Summer and Winter in the Northern Hemisphere, and the opposite in the Southern Hemisphere, either of two points in the sun's path at which the sun is furthest north or south of the equator, about June 21 and December 22 respectively Important in understanding tides is the fact that this coincides with the times when the earth and sun are furthest apart in their orbit, Sol+systere, latin for Sun and standing still The place in the ecliptic where the Sun appears to stand still at its furthest point north or south of the equator, the first degree of Cancer or Capricorn The northernmost point is the summer solstice and the southernmost is the winter solstice, when viewed from the northern hemisphere The Sun at maximum declination appears to stand still at these points for about three days The seasons are reversed in the southern hemisphere See Tropic, One of two days in the year when the day (as opposed to the night) is either longest or shortest, 20 or 21 June and 21 or 22 December, The point where the earth stands at the extreme of its ellipsis around the sun, (1) Either the longest day of the year (summer solstice) or the shortest day of the year (winter solstice) (2) The point when the Sun is over the Tropic of Capricorn or the Tropic of Cancer, either of the two times during the year when the sun appears farthest from the equator In the Northern Hemisphere, the sun appears farthest north of the equator during the summer solstice, on or about June 21, and farthest south of the equator during the winter solstice, on or about December 22, 1 One of the two points of the ecliptic farthest from the celestial equator; one of the two points on the celestial sphere occupied by the sun at maximum declination, point on the sky where the ecliptic is furthest from the celestial equator by 23 5° When the Sun is at the solstice point we have either the longest amount of daylight (summer: June 21 for northern hemisphere) or the shortest amount of daylight (winter: December 21 for northern hemisphere), One of the two points of the sun's apparent annual path where it is displaced farthest north or south from the earth's equator In the northern hemisphere, the summer solstice is reached about 22 June In the southern hemisphere, the winter solstice is reached about 22 December, either of the two times per year when the sun is at its greatest angular distance from the celestial equator: about June 21 (Northern Hemisphere summer solstice), when the sun reaches its northernmost point on the celestial sphere, or about December 22 (Northern Hemisphere winter solstice) when it reaches its southernmost point, The summer solstice is the day of the year with the most hours of daylight, and the winter solstice is the day of the year with the fewest hours of daylight. the time when the sun is furthest north or south of the equator the summer/winter solstice (=the longest or shortest day of the year) equinox (solstitium, from sol + status, past participle of sistere ).
