Question

The summer solstice occurs around June 21st each year and is the day when the northern hemisphere experiences the longest day and shortest night of the year. On this day, the altitude of the noonday sun is highest in the mid-latitudes of the northern hemisphere (around 23.5 degrees north latitude). This is because the Earth's axis is tilted towards the sun at its maximum angle, causing the sun's rays to be most direct in this region. The altitude of the noonday sun is lowest near the South Pole on this day. Although the North Pole receives 24 hours of daylight on the summer solstice, the altitude of the noonday sun is not as high as in the mid-latitudes of the northern hemisphere. The altitude of the noonday sun is also not as high in the mid-latitudes of the southern hemisphere as it is in the mid-latitudes of the northern hemisphere on the summer solstice.
