The summer solstice is the moment when the southern hemisphere is tilted about 23.5 ° toward the sun. This is the longest day of the year and consequently the night shorter in terms of illumination by the sun. The summer solstice can happen on 21 or 22 December, days when solar radiation falls vertically on the Tropic of Capricorn.

Because of the Earth’s elliptical orbit, the dates on which the solstices occur not divide the year into a number equal to the day. This is because to the extent that the earth is closer to the Sun, she travels fastest.

In addition, the lines of the Arctic and Antarctic polar circles, the solstices mark the only day of the year when the day or night last 24 hours uninterrupted.

The origin of the word solstice comes from Latin, solstitius, which means “place where the sun’s path does not appear to move.” The word is formed by the union of Sol + sistere, which means “stopped”. The weather event happens thanks to the rotation and translation of the Earth, which make the solar light is distributed unequally between the two hemispheres.
