So the Earth doesn't stand straight up: its axis is tilted at about a 23-degree angle. On the day of the summer solstice, the Northern Hemisphere faces the Sun at its most direct angle—meaning more light as the Sun reaches its highest point in the sky: https://t.co/ld5HfKFBGI https://t.co/uGsb3i2kak — PolitiTweet.org

Meanwhile, the Southern Hemisphere is receiving its least light of the year today. They get their day in the sun (so to speak) on December 21... the start of astronomical winter in the Northern Hemisphere. — PolitiTweet.org
