What season in the northern hemisphere is the North Pole tipping away from the sun?
This is dependent on how far it is tipping from the sun. If it is tipping as far away as possible, then it is the middle of Winter.
Is it possible to predict the northern lights?
Yes, but not very long in advance. When there is a lot of activity on the surface of the sun and it ejects material towards Earth, the Northern Lights can be seen. So if the activity on the Sun is seen, then it is possible to predict that the Northern Lights will be seen in the following hours and days.
Is it possible to see the northern lights from Massachusetts?
It is not impossible. The conditions must be very favorable.
When the northern hemisphere is tilted toward the sun it experiences what season?
The same season as that experienced by the Southern Hemisphere when that is tilted toward the sun. Still need to ask? Like, do you feel warmer when in sunlight or colder when in sunlight? Like, is Summer colder or hotter than Winter? Where do you live? Is it reasonable to assume that because you get a lot more sunlight (when away from the Equator), in the SUMMER, the sun is more overhead than it is in the Winter. And if the sun is more overhead, is it possible that this hemisphere is tilted toward the sun at this season? I'm sure you didn't really need to ask this question if you had given it a bit of thought yourself before asking others. To make up for it, work out which way the sun appears to travel in the hemisphere you don't live in.
Is it possible to see the northern lights from Washington?
Occasionally when solar activity is extremely intense, the Northern Lights may be visible in the state of Washington - the further north and east in the state, the more likely. Solar energy peaks about every 11 years so that's about how often there is a chance of seeing the Northern lights in Washington - but its still rare; it has to be a more energetic peak solar year than normal for the northern lights to stray that far south.
North america is located in the?
There are several possible answers: - the Americas - the Northern Hemisphere - the Western Hemisphere - the Western World - Latin America (partially)
In the Northern Hemisphere the westerly winds blow from the southwest and drive the water beneath them to what direction?
North South East West (possible answers)
Can you see all the northern hemisphere constellations all year long and why?
No I can't, because I live on Earth and there's no place on Earth where that's possible.
What season in the northern hemisphere is the North Pole tipping away from the sun?
This is dependent on how far it is tipping from the sun. If it is tipping as far away as possible, then it is the middle of Winter.
What is the hemisphere nearest the south pole?
Each hemisphere has cold winters and hot summers. This is because the seasons are reversed. E.g: In America (Northern Hemisphere) their Christmas is in winter and is very cold, but in Australia (Southern Hemisphere) their Christmas is in Summer and is very hot. See even though they happen at the same time they have completely different climates - the seasons are just reversed.
Why it is summer in Australia when it is winter in the US?
The Earth is tilted on an axis and travels around the Sun while spinning on this axis. For three months of the year, the Northern Hemisphere is leaning towards the Sun while the Southern Hemisphere isn't. This is when it's summer in the Northern Hemisphere and winter in the Southern. Here, the Sun's rays are targeted towards the Tropic of Cancer. For another three months, the same scenario is present but vice versa, meaning it's summer in the Southern Hemisphere and winter in the Northern. Here, the Sun's rays are targeted on the Tropic of Capricorn. However, for six months of the year (three months at a time), both hemispheres are typically aligned, making the Sun's rays directed towards the center of the Earth: the Equator. This is when it is either fall or spring, alternating depending on the hemisphere. Australia is in the Southern Hemisphere when the United States is in the Northern Hemisphere. So when it's summer in Australia, it will be winter in the US because the Sun's rays are as far from the US as possible and as close to Australia as possible: the Tropic of Capricorn.
Large Magellanic cloud is visible from?
The Large Magellanic Cloud can be seen from the southern hemisphere, particularly from regions below the equator like Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, and parts of South America. It is not visible from the northern hemisphere due to its location in the sky.
When sitting on a beach does the sun appear over the sea in the southern hemisphere and appear over land in the northern hemisphere?
It depends where you are. It is possible to sit on a beach facing east and watch the sun rise over the sea in the northern and southern hemispheres. Similarly if you sit on a beach on the west coast of anywhere the sun will rise over the land and set into the sea.
Did you just see Jupiter?
A this time, September 2009, it is possible to see Jupiter at night. Apart from the moon, it is the brightest object in the night sky. From the northern hemisphere, it can be seen towards the south.
Is there a country located in three hemisphere?
No, it is not possible for a country to be located in three hemispheres as the Earth is divided into four hemispheres (Northern, Southern, Eastern, Western). Each country can only be situated in a maximum of two hemispheres.
What hemisphere is twin falls Idaho in?
Three. (Northern Hemisphere, Western Hemisphere and Land Hemisphere.)"The Hemispheres of the Earth in geography and cartography refer to any bipartite division of the globe into a hemisphere (from Ancient Greek - misphairion meaning "half of a sphere").Division of the Earth by the equator and prime meridian.The most common such divisions are by latitudinal or longitudinal markers:North-South Northern Hemisphere, the half that is north of the equatorSouthern Hemisphere, the half that lies south of the equatorEast-West Eastern Hemisphere, the half that is east of the prime meridian and west of 180° longitudeWestern Hemisphere, the half that lies west of the prime meridian and east of 180° longitudeThe East-West division can also be seen in a cultural sense -- the cultural hemispheres.However, other schemes have sought to divide the planet in a way that maximizes the preponderance of one geographic feature or another in each division:Land-Water Land hemisphere, the hemisphere on the Earth containing the largest possible area of landWater hemisphere, the hemisphere on the Earth containing the largest area of water" (Wiki)
How is the earth tilted when it is winter in the northern hemisphere?
Yes and in the winter, spring and fall also, just from different posiitons. You may be thinking of the tilt in the earth's axis, which is 23.5 degrees. During our summer in the northern hemisphere, the north pole is tilted toward the sun, and it is winter at that time in the southern hemisphere. When it is summer in the southern hemisphere, the south pole is tilted toward the sun, and it is winter at that time in the north. We in the north are surprised to learn that the earth itself is a little closer to the sun during our winter. It is winter for us because the northern pole is pointed away from the sun. The tilt of the axis is what causes the seasons, not the earth's actual distance from the sun.
