The vernal equinox.
Days and nights are equal at the equator, an imaginary line that divides the Earth into the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. This phenomenon occurs during the equinoxes, which happen twice a year, around March 20-21 and September 22-23.
Twice a year, the days and nights are of equal length during the equinoxes. These occur around March 20 (the vernal equinox) and September 23 (the autumnal equinox). On these dates, the sun is positioned directly above the equator, resulting in approximately 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of darkness for most locations on Earth.
