Best Answer

The 'equinoxes' occur in March and September. At those times, neither pole is tilted

toward or away from the sun.

At the time of the June solstice, the north pole reaches its maximum tilt toward

the sun, whereas at the time of the December solstice, the south pole is at its

maximum tilt toward the sun.

How does the south pole have 24 hours of dayligt?

The Earth is tilted with respect to the plane of its orbit, so that only on the equinox days (usually March 20 and September 23) do both poles experience a short period when both can have sun. The pole that is angled away from the Sun will have no daylight, while the one angled toward the Sun will have continual daylight -- although the Sun just circles the horizon and never goes very high into the sky. So from around September 23 to March 20, the South Pole has 6 months of daylight, 24 hours a day. The exact length is about 4383 hours.
