Equinox ; see related link below to additional information .
The equinox occurs twice a year when day and night are of approximately equal length. The equinox marks the beginning of spring and autumn. During the equinox, the sun crosses the celestial equator, resulting in nearly equal periods of daylight and darkness.
The last day of summer in the northern hemisphere is typically September 22nd or 23rd. This is known as the autumnal equinox, when daylight and darkness are nearly equal in length.
The Northern Hemisphere has the most hours of daylight during the summer solstice, which occurs around June 21st each year. Areas near the Arctic Circle, such as parts of Scandinavia, experience nearly 24 hours of daylight during this time.
When neither hemisphere is tilted toward the sun, it is known as an equinox. During an equinox, there is nearly equal amounts of daylight and darkness all across the world. This phenomenon occurs twice a year, in March and September.
During this time, known as the equinox, the sun is directly above the equator, resulting in nearly equal daylight and nighttime hours across the globe. This phenomenon happens twice a year, in March and September, marking the beginning of spring and fall seasons. It is also a period when the Earth's axis is not tilted towards or away from the sun, leading to balanced illumination on both hemispheres.
At the poles. Places such as Alaska go through several months of nearly continuous sunlight and several months of relative darkness during parts of the year. This is due to the poles being either the closest or furthest areas from the Sun while the Earth tilts.

The Spring equinox and the Autumn equinox.
The last day of summer in the northern hemisphere is typically September 22nd or 23rd. This is known as the autumnal equinox, when daylight and darkness are nearly equal in length.
In the Northern Hemisphere, the spring season starts during the March equinox. This is when the tilt of Earth's axis is inclined neither away from nor towards the Sun, resulting in nearly equal hours of daylight and darkness.
Uranus has an extreme axial tilt of about 98 degrees, causing its equator to be nearly horizontal relative to its orbit around the Sun. As a result, day and night at its equator can last for long periods; during its summer solstice, one pole experiences continuous daylight for about 42 Earth years, while the opposite pole is in darkness. This cycle reverses during the winter solstice, leading to similarly prolonged periods of night. Thus, the unique tilt of Uranus results in dramatic variations in daylight and darkness over its 84-year orbital period.
The Northern Hemisphere has the most hours of daylight during the summer solstice, which occurs around June 21st each year. Areas near the Arctic Circle, such as parts of Scandinavia, experience nearly 24 hours of daylight during this time.

This event is known as the equinox. During the equinox, the Earth's axis is not tilted towards or away from the Sun, resulting in nearly equal amounts of daylight and darkness across the planet. It marks the official start of spring in the Northern Hemisphere and autumn in the Southern Hemisphere.
Mockingbirds tend to stay up late into the night, but they are not generally nocturnal. Nocturnal implies that they are not awake during daylight hours, but they are known to sing nearly all hours of the day.
The spring solstice is the beginning of Spring. (March 21st) There is no spring solstice only winter and summer. There are spring and fall equinoxes when the amount of daylight and darkness are the same (12 hrs each). A solstice occurs when darkness (winter) or daylight (summer) are at a maximum for the year. It is due to the tilt of the earth's axis of rotation relative to the plane it revolves around the sun in. Same thing that gives the seasons.
