What else can I help you with?
Does the sun rise in the southern hemisphere first?
No. The Sun is always above the horizon somewhere in the Southern hemisphere just as it always is above the horizon somewhere in the Northern hemisphere. About half of each hemisphere is illuminated at every instant (well more of the Southern hemisphere is illuminated from the end of September to the end of March and more of the Northern hemisphere during the other half year).
What direction of the compass does the shadow point to at midday?
At midday, when the sun is at its highest point in the sky, shadows typically point directly north in the Northern Hemisphere and directly south in the Southern Hemisphere. This is because the sun is positioned in the southern part of the sky in the Northern Hemisphere and in the northern part in the Southern Hemisphere. The exact direction can vary slightly depending on the time of year and the observer's latitude.
Does the sun move counter clockwise in the southern hemisphere?
No as it's the same for the northern hemisphere. (What does "counter clockwise" even mean in this context?)
How do you use stars and sun to find direction?
To find direction using the stars, locate the North Star (Polaris) in the Northern Hemisphere, which is positioned almost directly above the North Pole, helping to identify north. In the Southern Hemisphere, the Southern Cross constellation can be used to determine south by extending an imaginary line along its long axis. During the day, the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, so at noon, it will be roughly to the south in the Northern Hemisphere and to the north in the Southern Hemisphere, providing a general sense of direction.
What point does the southern hemisphere have the greatest exposure to the sun?
The point where the Southern Hemisphere has the greatest exposure to the sun is the winter solstice.

About half of each hemisphere is illuminated at every instant (well more of the Southern hemisphere is illuminated from the end of September to the end of March and more of the Northern hemisphere during the other half year).
What direction is the hemisphere tilted during the summer solstice?
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.
What is the southern hemisphere?
The southern hemisphere is the half of Earth that is south of the equator. It includes continents like Australia, Antarctica, most of South America, and parts of Africa. Seasons in the southern hemisphere are opposite to those in the northern hemisphere.

When does Winter Happen?
When The northern hemisphere Or Southern Hemisphere Is Tilted Away From The Sun
In what positions are Earth and the sun on the summer solstice in the Southern Hemisphere?
The Southern Hemisphere is tilted toward the sun.
Longest day from sun rise to sunset in NSW Australia?

What happen in the southern Hemisphere when the northern Hemisphere is tilt toward the sun?
