It depends on which hemisphere you live in. North of the equator, it is the northern hemisphere that is tilted towards the sun in the summer, resulting in longer days and warmer temperatures, while at the same time the Southern Hemisphere gets less sunlight resulting in shorter days and cooler weather. When the Earth tilts the other way, the opposite occurs and it is the north's turn to experience winter while the south enjoys summer.

June, July and August. When the Northern Hemisphere is tilted towards the sun and when the Southern Hemisphere is tilted away from the sun.
No, that would be impossible, because the Earth is basically an orb -- round. When the South Pole is tilted toward the Sun, it's summer in the Southern Hemisphere -- and Winter in the Northern Hemisphere.
If the northern axis or North Pole is tilted directly towards the sun, it is summer in the northern hemisphere and winter in the southern hemisphere. If your talking about the angle of the planet when the Northern Hemisphere is receiving direct rays, its summer. If you are asking what the Northern Hemisphere season it is when planet Earth is closest to the Sun, it's winter.

In the northern hemisphere's summer solstice, around the 21st of June, the northern hemisphere is tilted towards the sun. In the southern hemisphere's summer solstice, around the 21st of December, the southern hemisphere is tilted towards the sun.
No. It is not "the Earth" that is tilted away or towards the Sun, it is the hemisphere in which you live. And if you have summer, that basically means that your hemisphere is tilted TOWARDS the Sun.
At both the winter and summer solstices, the Earth is tilted towards the sun. What differs is which hemisphere is tilted towards the sun. In the northern hemisphere at its winter solstice, the southern hemisphere is tilted towards the sun, while the northern hemisphere it tilted away from the sun. In the southern hemisphere at its winter solstice, the northern hemisphere is tilted towards the sun, while the southern hemisphere it tilted towards the sun. When it is the winter solstice in one hemisphere, it is the summer solstice is in the other hemisphere. For a winter solstice, that particular hemisphere is tilted away from the sun.
During the winter solstice, the northern hemisphere of the Earth is tilted away from the sun; during the summer solstice, the northern hemisphere of the Earth is tilted towards the sun.

When The Northern Hemisphere Or Southern Hemisphere Is Tilted Towards The Sun

yes
The Northern Hemisphere is tilted closest to the sun during its summer solstice, when the southern hemisphere is pointed away during the winter solstice.
Assuming the observer is in the North, then the southern hemisphere would be tilted towards the sun during the Winter Solstice in December. However, for observers in the Southern Hemisphere, the Winter Solstice would occur in June, and the northern hemisphere would be tilted towards the sun.
When the southern hemisphere is tilted towards the sun, it is summer below the equator and winter above. Likewise, when the northern hemisphere is tilted towards the sun, it is summer in the north and winter in the south. Hope that helps. Martyn.
