Solstice is the middle of Summer and Winter, Equinox is the middle of Spring and Fall.
There are two solstices, summer and winter, and two equinoxes, spring and fall, each year. The longest day of the year is the summer solstice, on the 21st or 22nd of June in the Northern Hemisphere. In this case, day means the time between sunrise and sunset. The winter solstice is the shortest day of the year. At each equinox, day and night are of equal length. In all parts of the world, the day is 12 hours long on the equinox. They occur in March and September.
A solstice is the day year with the longest period of light(summer)/shortest period of (winter). An equinox are the two days in the year in which in the periods of lights and periods and darkness are exactly the same duration.
The dates are different -
Winter solstice around December 21.
Summer solstice - around June 21.
Autumnal equinox - around September 23.
Vernal equinox - around March 21.
These 4 dates start the 4 seasons.
The solstices are when most places on Earth have either the longest or shortest time between sunrise and sunset due to the Earth being at the points in its orbit at which one of the poles is at its maximum tilt toward the sun. The equinoxes are the midpoints between the solstices, on which the sun's rays are perpendicular to the Earth's rotational axis, resulting in the whole planet having about 12 hours of sunlight.
Solstice is shortest or longest day (depending on if it is winter or summer) when the sun is farthest from the equator and equinox is when day and night are of equal time everywhere on earth when the sun crosses the equator.
The solestice is day of the year with the longest period of light (the summer solstice) or the shortest period of light (winter solstice).
The vernal equinox (spring) and automnal equinox (fall) are the two days in the year in which the periods of light and periods of darkness are exactly the same duration.
The solstice is day of the year with the longest period of light (the summer solstice) or the longest period of night (the winter solstice).

None. The Vernal Equinox is in March and the Summer Solstice is in June. There is no solstice or equinox in May.

"Solstice" refers to a day that has the maximum difference between day and night - either the longest day or the shortest day. The opposite would be the "equinox", which is when the day hours equal the night hours.
The solstices are around June 21 for the Summer Solstice and December 21 for the Winter Solstice. The Vernal Equinox is around March 20, and the Autumnal Equinox is around September 22. These mark the official changing of the seasons.
No. September has an equinox.

The longest day and shortest night occurs on the summer solstice. The shortest day and longest night occurs on the winter solstice. Midway between these points (2x a year) are the equinox, where the day and night are of equal length.
The maximum elevation of the Sun occurs at the summer solstice, and the minimum at the winter solstice. During an equinox, the Sun is directly above Earth's equator. Sorry, but if you are Savannah Schoenherr, DO NOT COPY
