Why Earth Has Seasons: It's the Tilt, Not Distance
Think seasons are caused by Earth getting closer to the Sun? You're wrong. Actually, our orbit is nearly circular. The distance barely changes at all. The real culprit is Earth's tilt. We lean twenty-three point five degrees. When your hemisphere tilts toward the sun, light hits directly and intensely. When it tilts away, light spreads out over a wider area, making it colder. So it's the tilt, not the distance. Follow for more quick science facts.
