But I AM ! The earth's axis is a straight line between the north and south poles,
through the middle of the earth. Since I live in Chicago, the line straight down from
the top of my head is tilted about 48 degrees from the axis when I'm awake, and
about 42 degrees from it when I'm asleep. I am almost never parallel to earth's axis.
Because Earths axis is tilted.
There would be no four seasons if the earths axis was not tilted.
Earth is tilted from it axis
Seasons And Climate
The axis of the Earth is tilted 23.5 degress from the plane of the orbit round the sun.
Yes it is tilted at about 23.5 degrees
The Earth's magnetic field is tilted about 11.5 degrees from the Earth's axis of rotation (i.e. its geographic axis).
The Earth's axis of rotation is tilted 23.44 degrees from the plane of the ecliptic.
the earth would be weird.

The season
without the tilted axis the whole planet would be impossible to live on since this angle is a state of equilibrium
