    Take this go and read a few factual books, might I recommend anything by "The Invisible College", they've been producing interesting pamphlets etc since 1660.

    The Northern hemisphere is tilted directly towards the sun, it's misummers day.

    as the earth moves a quarter of the way round, its the autumnal equinox

    then when its on the opposite side, the NH is tilted away from the sun, thats mid winter

    then the spring equinox then back to summer.

    The earth is flat and rests on the backs of four huge elephants which are in turn standing on the back of an enormous turtle as it slowly swims through space.



    You know it makes sense

    the earths axis is tilted, and the earth spins on its axis, as it goes around the sun.

    and the earths tilted axis , does wobble, but decadaly. ish.




    difficult to explain , without pictures

    Can any CUK astronomers explain it?

    I am told that I am spinning round a sun on a spinning planet with a spinning moon but the universe is spinning round me.

    It's been overcast and pi55ing it down for four weeks solid, so the answer is that you are simply trolling.
