The Sun can not face away from the Sun.
It is night in the hemisphere facing away from the Sun.
When Houston is facing away from the sun, it is experiencing nighttime. This is due to the rotation of the Earth on its axis, causing different parts of the Earth to be in shadow at different times. During nighttime, Houston would be in the Earth's shadow, with the sun located on the opposite side of the planet.
When the South Pole is tilted away from the sun, it is winter in the Southern Hemisphere.
As Earth orbits the sun - it takes one year to get around it - we see different parts of space and different patterns of stars, as Earth turns away from the sun every night. The constellations we see on a night in summer, are behind the Sun during the winter.
The northern hemisphere leans away from the sun the most on "Winter solstice", around December 21. This is the official start of Winter in the northern hemisphere, although the earth is slightly closer to the sun than it is in the Summer.
The Earth tilts toward the sun for spring and summer. So the earth is not facing away from the Sun. If we were not facing the sun, we'd be cold because it would be fall going into winter.
When its "summer time " the earth is facing toward the sun , and when it is winter the earth is facing away from the sun .
During the winter solstice the Sun's rays are tangent to the Arctic and Antarctic Circles. At this time the North Pole is facing away from the Sun, while the South Pole is facing into the Sun.
The seasons change because of the Earth's tilt. When it's summer, the tilt will be facing more to the sun. When it's winter, the tilt will be facing away from the sun.
It is night in the hemisphere facing away from the Sun.
Because the earth spins and since our Earth is on a axis that is going diagonal when the northern hemisphere is faced towards the sun it it is summer and when its half faced toward the sun its spring, same goes for winter, when the northern hemisphere is facing away from the sun we have winter when it's facing half away from the sun we have fall.
It depends where you are. I would assume you are somwhere in the northern hemisphere since December through March is winter here. It is coldest in December here because the North Pole is facing away from the sun, not because of how far away we are from the sun. Since the top pole is facing away from the Sun at a 23.5 degree tilt than that means the South Pole is facing towards the sun at this time, thus experiencing warm temperatures.
No. What makes winter cold is the Earths tilt. The Earths "axial tilt" is 23.44 degrees. So, when it is winter, the tilt is away from the sun. when it is summer the tilt is facing the sun. when not facing the sun the tilt makes the days shorter, thus less sunlight and colder.
The Southern United States of America are in the Norther hemisphere of Earth. Thus when it is winter there the Southern hemisphere of the Earth is pointing towards the sun.
? what if if its facing away from the sun it would be night if that is what u asked
