Well it was named after tropics of the raneforist ?
The tropic of Capricorn is the southernmost point where the sun will be directly overhead at noon on the winter's solstice. When named the sun was in the constalation of Capricorn during the solstice. That was 2000 years ago. Now the sun is in the constelation of Saggetarius during December. Should they change the name? Simillar with the tropic of Cancer, furthest north that the sun will be directly overhead at noon of the summer solstice.The equinox has progressed and it should be the Tropic of Taurus (eat that Henery Miller!)
