Hi I'm 9 years old I have a sister named thanjila and I believe the answer is autum or fall
Winter has the darkest nights, particularly around the winter solstice, which occurs around December 21st in the Northern Hemisphere. During this time, the days are shortest, and nights are longest due to the tilt of the Earth's axis. As a result, areas farther from the equator experience extended periods of darkness. In contrast, summer nights are shorter and tend to be brighter.
There is no "spring solstice", there is a spring equinox and a summer solstice.
It Is closest to the earth In the winter.
we have it because the earth tilts
The solstice occurs when the Earth's axial tilt is most inclined towards or away from the Sun, resulting in the longest or shortest day of the year. The timing of the solstice can vary slightly each year due to the Earth's elliptical orbit and the fact that a year is not precisely 365 days; it's about 365.24 days. This discrepancy causes the solstice to shift by a day or two over time. Additionally, leap years further contribute to the variation in the solstice's timing.
winter solstice
Winter solstice is the darkest day of the year because it has the shortest amount of daylight hours and the longest night. This is due to the tilt of the Earth's axis, which causes the sun to be at its lowest point in the sky in the Northern Hemisphere during the winter solstice.
At the winter solstice, which occurs around December 21 in the Northern Hemisphere, the North Pole experiences continuous darkness, known as polar night. During this time, the sun does not rise above the horizon, resulting in the darkest period of the year for that region. Conversely, the Southern Hemisphere enjoys its summer solstice, with longer daylight hours.
The hemisphere that is in the winter solstice - for example, the northern hemisphere in December - will receive less light, because the Sun is in the opposite direction, with respect to Earth.
If it the solstice is in northern hemisphere, then it is Antarctica, and if it occurs in southern hemisphere, then it is the North Pole. There is no stable day-night transition at the poles, therefore durring winter, the pole remains in darkness for the entire season, and durring summer sun never sets but moves in along the horizon.
The darkest part of the moon is called the Umbra. That is the darkest not the largest.
the darkest part of the moon's shadow is called the umbra

The word "darkest" is an adjective.
