Summer Officially Starts
At 8:21 Friday Morning
BY FAY BENTLEY
"Earth arrives at heliocentric
longitude 270 degrees on June
21 at 16:21 L'T," the astronomical
observatories announce. In other
wordi lummer will begin, of
ficially at least, on June 21 at
8:21 a m. Pacific Standard time.
At that hour the direct rays
of the sun will be above the
Tropic of Cancer, the most north
ern point reached by the sun's
straight beams. On this day the
entire area within the Arctic
Circle is experiencing daylight
and the sun does not set any
where within the Arctic Circle
during thii 24-hour period.
Also at this time the firstVlay
of winter occurs in the southern
half of the world. The Antarctic
region is half way through its
long siege of cold winte night
and the Arctic region has ex
perienced three months of con
tinual daylight. In another three
months conditions in the Arctic
and Antarctic areas will be reversed.
Ancient people n a m ed this
day the summer solstice, a term
which means "sun still," as they
believed the earth paused brief
ly before starting its Journey
back towards the equator.
Although we all know the
earth is traveling around the
sun, it appears to earth-dwellers
that the sun is encircling the
earth. Because our planet does
not stand upright on its axis or
axle (imaginary line from North
Pole to South Pole through the
earth) but is tilted or slanted
at an angle of 23 ',i degrees from
the perpendicular, the sun in
its apparent yearly journey
spends six months north of the
equator and the same length of
of time on the southern side of
this imaginary line around the
center of the earth.
The 23'i degree inclination of
the earth's axis causes the ver
tical rays of the sun to reach the
Tropic of Cancer which lies
23'. 2 degrees north of the equa
tor, on or about June 21 each

J trip to Brookings last week.

year. As this marks the begin
ning of the summer season in
the northern hemisphere, it is
called the summer solstice.
Winter Solstice
Six months later, on or about
Dec. 21, the direct rays of the
sun are over the Tropic of Cap
ricorn, and the winter solstice
or the first day of winter occurs
in the northern hemisphere. Sea
sons in the southern half of the
world are exactly opposite from
those north of the equator.
The path which the sun seems
to follow is called the ecliptic,
and the two points where the
ecliptic crosses the equator are
the equinoxes which mark the
beginning of spring and autumn.
Spring begins when the sun
crosses from the southern to the
northern side of the equator and
the first day of autumn occurs
when the sun travels from north
to south across this imaginary
line.
Two Conditions
Our seasons are the direct re
sult of two conditions; the tilt
ing of the earth on its axis and
the yearly journey Naround the
sun. The slant of the earth's axis
never changes and this causes
the northern half of our globe
to be inclined towards the sun
for six months or while complet
ing the first half of its orbital
journey.
During the next six months
while the earth completes a
solar revolution the sou them
hemisphere is inclined towards
l the sun. The south temperate
zone will experience spring and
summer and the Antarctic region
will have six months of daylight.
The north temperate zoe will
have autumn and winter while
the Arctic region will have six
I months of darkness.
