What are the 2 seasons Antarctica experiences?
Every spot on planet earth has four seasons: summer, fall, winter and spring. This is also true in Antarctica. However, the southern hemisphere's seasons are exactly opposite of those in the northern hemisphere. The equinox dates are the same, worldwide, but they signal different seasons in different hemispheres: June 21, for example, starts summer in the north and starts winter in the south.
Why are summer evenings longer than winter evenings?
Those parts of the earth where the sun is farther due to the rotation of the earth, it occurs the winter and due to the higher distance from the sun, the light remains there for short time and evenings are longer.
What two days is the sun overhead at either 23.5 degrees north or south are called?
Those are the days when the sun reaches the "solstices" ... June 21 and December 21.
Why are star Constellations different in the summer in the winter?
Star constellations appear different in summer and winter due to the Earth's orbit around the Sun. As Earth moves, our nighttime view of the stars changes, exposing different regions of the sky. In summer, we see constellations that are positioned behind the Earth relative to the Sun, while in winter, we observe those that are in front of the Earth. This seasonal shift results in varying constellations being prominent at different times of the year.
Why are the constellations that appear in the winter sky different from those in the summer sky?
As the earth orbits the sun over the course of a full year, the side of earth in darkness (night) will face out toward a different direction. The winter constellations are those that are in line extending from the sun through earth out into the galaxy during winter, and the summer constellations are those on the opposite side of the sun. Therefore, during different seasons you are actually seeing different parts of the universe due to earth orbiting the sun.
Why are constellations seen in the summer sky different then in the winter sky?
This is caused by the earth's rotation around the sun. There are five constellations in the sky all year around, but the earth's rotational path will only allow us to observe the ones that are closest during that season's orbit.
Why are the constellation seen in summer sky different that seen in winter sky?
The constellations visible in the summer sky differ from those in the winter sky due to the Earth's orbit around the Sun. As the Earth moves along its orbit, our nighttime view of the stars shifts, exposing different regions of the celestial sphere at different times of the year. In summer, we face one part of the galaxy, while in winter, we face another, leading to the appearance of different constellations. Additionally, the tilt of the Earth's axis affects the visibility of certain stars and constellations during different seasons.
Why different constellations are visible at different times of the year?
Different constellations are visible at different times of the year due to the Earth's orbit around the Sun. As the Earth moves, our nighttime view of the sky changes, revealing different stars and constellations. For instance, in winter, we see constellations that are opposite the Sun in the sky, while in summer, we see those that are closer to the Sun. This shift occurs gradually throughout the year, resulting in a dynamic night sky.
Why some constellations cannot be seen in the summer?
First - Earth goes around the sun once a year. Every night, when Earth turns away from the sun, we see a particular area of space and the stars there. As Earth moves around the sun, we see different parts of space, and different patterns of stars as they come into view. The constellations we see in the summer, are then behind the sun in winter and vice versa ! Does that help?
Why are summer and winter constellations different?
In the nothern hemisphere, the north star (and circumpolar stars) are visible any night of the year. The reason the southern constellations vary with the seasons is due to earth's orbit of the sun. In winter the earth is on the opposite side of the sun as it is in the summer, thus the winter night sky is very different from the summer night sky. The winter day sky resembles more closely the summer night sky, if the sun weren't there to block instreaming starlight.
Why can some stars be seen in New York State on a summer night but cannot be seen on a winter night?
Some stars are seasonal, meaning their visibility changes with the Earth's position in its orbit around the Sun. During summer nights in New York State, the Earth is oriented in such a way that certain constellations and stars are above the horizon. In winter, the Earth has moved, obscuring those stars behind the Sun, which makes them invisible during that season. Additionally, winter nights tend to have different atmospheric conditions that can affect visibility.
What countries competed in the 2002 Salt Lake City Summer Olympic Games?
There was no Summer Olympics in Salt Lake City, Utah in 2002. That was a year for only the Winter Olympics. 78 different countries competed in those Winter Games.
Do the appearance of the constellations follow a seasonal pattern?
Yes - they do. As Earth makes it's yearly journey around the sun, we see different parts of space and different patterns of stars at night. The constellations we see on a winters night are in the daytime sky during the summer. The sun's light drowns them out and we can't see them or any stars in the daytime. But, ancient people used the constellations to determine when to harvest and when to plant. When the rains were coming and when it would be dry. When animals migrate and when they hibernate. That's why Capricornus (half goat half fish) Aquarius (water bearer) and Pisces (the fishes) are the constellations that have some reference to water - they also represent the months of January, February and March. Well, those months make up the rainy season. Those constellations marked the position of the SUN in the WET months of winter.
Why can we only see some constellations during the spring and summer months?
Those constellations that lie in the plane in which Earth orbits the Sun (the ecliptic) are only visible in the night sky when Earth is on their side of the Sun.
What two Winter Olympic games were from the Summer Olympic games?
Prior to the first Winter Olympics in 1924, both ice hockey and figure skating were competed at the Summer Olympics. Once the Winter Olympics started, those two sports moved from the Summer Games to the Winter Games.
