Northern Hemisphere has a Longer Summer: Am I Naive or Did You Know

Posted by on Apr 7, 2011 in Random Thoughts | 1 comment



I love reading new bits of information and learning things I had no idea bout.  This morning I read on BBC that the Northern Hemisphere has a longer summer than the Southern.

Somehow I feel I should have known that. Did you know? The source is here at BBC ” Our orbit and missing days of winter”

Let me know and comment below.

    I’m a bit confused about it.
    The explanation by BBC makes total sense.
    Yet, that would also mean that the equinoxes are not actually on March and September 21st.
    Mmmm…
