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

For all men begin, as we said, by wondering that things are as they are, as they do about self‐moving marionettes, or about the solstices or the incommensurability of the diagonal of a square with the side;.

the time of year when the sun is at its greatest declination
{n} the state of the sun at its farthest distance from the equator in June and December
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
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
when the Sun appears furthest north or south of the celestial equator
{i} either of the two times of the year when the sun is farthest from the equator (Astronomy)
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
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
The point in the ecliptic at which the sun is farthest from the equator, north or south, namely, the first point of the sign Cancer and the first point of the sign Capricorn, the former being the summer solstice, latter the winter solstice, in northern latitudes; so called because the sun then apparently stands still in its northward or southward motion
The point at which the sun is the furthest on the ecliptic from the celestial equator The point at which sun is at maximum distance from the equator and days and nights are most unequal in duration The Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn are those parallels of latitude which lies directly beneath a solstice In the Northern Hemisphere, the winter solstice falls on or about December 21 and the summer solstice on or about June 21
Either of two times of the year, in June and December, when the sun is farthest from the celestial equator
Either of the two instants during the year when the Sun, as seen from Earth, is farthest north or south of the equator The summer solstice (when the Sun is over the Tropic of Cancer) occurs around June 21st; the winter solstice (when the Sun is over the Tropic of Capricorn) happens around December 21st In the Northern Hemisphere, summer and winter officially begin at the instants of the summer and winter solstices, respectively
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
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 ). Either of the two moments in the year when the Sun's apparent path is farthest north or south from Earth's Equator; also, either of the two points along the ecliptic that the Sun passes through at these times. In the Northern Hemisphere the summer solstice occurs on June 21 or 22; the winter solstice on December 21 or
A stopping or standing still of the sun
The point where the earth stands at the extreme of its ellipsis around the sun
Dates when the declination of the sun is at 23 5 degrees North or South of the equator For the Northern Hemisphere this date falls on June 21 or 22 (Summer Solstice) In the Southern Hemisphere the date is December 21 or 22 (Winter Solstice)
The time of the year when the Sun's position is the sky is most distant from the celestial equator To a good approximation, north of the equator the day (around June 21) and the night (around December 21) are at their longest at the summer and winter solstices, and that is when those seasons are assumed to begin (the dates themselves, however, are known as midsummer day and midwinter day, respectively) Summer north of the equator coincides with winter south of it (and vice versa), and solstice names are also interchanged there
The moment when the sun farthest from the Earth's equator The summer solstice (in June) marks the official first day of summer The winter solstice (in December) marks the official first day of winter As soon as the solstice is passed, the sun starts accelerating toward the equator
The time of the year when the Sun appears furthest north or south of the celestial equator The solstices mark the beginning of the Summer and Winter seasons
The position of the sun when farthest north (summer solstice) or farthest south (wintern solstice)
Either of the two times of the year when the sun is the greatest distance from the celestial equator, occurring about June 22 and December 22 The summer solstice marks the day containing the maximum hours of daylight, whereas the winter solstice has the fewest hours of daylight (the longest night)
either of the two times of the year when the sun is at its greatest distance from the celestial equator
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
The time of the sun's passing the solstices, or solstitial points, namely, about June 21 and December 21
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
(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
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
in Appendix
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)
solstitum = [Latin] solstice, from sol = [Latin] Sun, and stitum = [Latin] unmoving A solstice is a moment when the Sun reverses its motion between the stars (as seen from the Earth) from northward to southward or the other way around The longest and shortest days and nights occur near the solstices These moments signal the beginning of the seasons of winter and summer The December solstice is the winter solstice in the northern hemisphere, and the summer solstice in the southern hemisphere The other two seasons are governed by the equinoxes
In the Southern Hemisphere the seasons are reversed. See also equinox
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
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
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
the day when the noontime Sun is either highest in the sky (summer solstice is June 22) or lowest in the sky (winter solstice on December 22)
sunsted
summer solstice
The moment when the Earth is in that point of its orbit where the northern or southern hemisphere is most inclined toward the sun
winter solstice
The moment when the Earth is in that point of its orbit where the northern or southern hemisphere is most inclined away from the sun
solstices
The two points in the ecliptic where the Sun reaches its maximum and minimum declinations; also the times when the Sun reaches these points The maximum north declination occurs on or near June 21, marking the beginning of summer in the Northern Hemisphere and the beginning of winter in the Southern The maximum south declination occurs on or near December 22, marking the beginning of winter in the Northern Hemisphere and the beginning of summer in the Southern
solstices
the solstices are two points on the ecliptic midway between the equinoxes When the ecliptic is north of the celestial equator, the midpoint is called the summer solstice and occurs about 21 June When the ecliptic is south of the celestial equator, the midpoint is called the winter solstice and occurs about 21 December As can easily be seen, the solstices occur when the sun is at its greatest distance north or south of the equator
solstices
The maximum north and south location of the sun on the celestial sphere   The June solstice (6/21) is maximum north and the December solstice  (12/21) is maximum south   In the northern hemisphere the summer solstice occurs in June while the  winter solstice is the one in December
solstices
plural of solstice
solstices
1 The two points of the ecliptic farthest from the celestial equator where the Sun reaches its maximum north or south declination 2 The times when the Sun reaches these points: about June 21 and December 22
