* It's summer in the Northern Hemisphere: The Northern Hemisphere receives more direct sunlight, leading to longer days and warmer temperatures.
* It's winter in the Southern Hemisphere: The Southern Hemisphere is tilted away from the Sun, resulting in shorter days and colder temperatures.
* The Sun's path in the sky is higher: The Sun appears higher in the sky, meaning its rays hit the Earth at a more direct angle.
* The length of daylight hours is longer: Days are longer in the Northern Hemisphere, with the Sun rising earlier and setting later.
* The North Pole experiences 24 hours of daylight: The North Pole is tilted directly towards the Sun, experiencing continuous daylight.
* The South Pole experiences 24 hours of darkness: The South Pole is tilted away from the Sun, experiencing continuous darkness.
This tilt towards the Sun is what causes the seasons on Earth.
