🌿🌿👉👉SUMMER SOLSTICE👈👈🥰🥰

 The summer solstice is the day of the year when one of the Earth's poles is tilted most directly toward the Sun, resulting in the longest day and shortest night of the year.

Key Points:

• Date (Northern Hemisphere): Usually falls on June 20th or 21st.
• Reason: The Sun reaches its highest point in the sky at noon, directly over the Tropic of Cancer (23.5° N latitude).
• Significance:
  • Marks the beginning of summer.
  • The longest daylight hours of the year.
  • Celebrated in many cultures (e.g., Midsummer festivals in Europe).

In the Southern Hemisphere:

• The summer solstice occurs around December 21st or 22nd, when the Sun is directly over the Tropic of Capricorn.
