In 2021,\u00a0the June solstice occurs on Sunday, June 20, marking the start of summer in the Northern Hemisphere. Here\u2019s everything you should know about the\u00a0summer solstice<\/strong>\u2014what it means,\u00a0why it\u2019s the longest day of the year, and how to celebrate.<\/p>

THE JUNE\u00a0SOLSTICE<\/h3>\n

In the Northern Hemisphere, the\u00a0June solstice<\/strong>\u00a0(aka\u00a0summer solstice<\/strong>) occurs when\u00a0the Sun travels along\u00a0its northernmost path\u00a0in the sky<\/strong>. This\u00a0marks the astronomical start of summer in the northern half of the globe.\u00a0(In the Southern Hemisphere, it\u2019s the opposite: the June solstice marks the astronomical start of\u00a0winter<\/a>,\u00a0when the Sun is at its lowest point in the\u00a0sky.)<\/p>\n

WHEN IS THE SUMMER\u00a0SOLSTICE?<\/h3>\n

The June solstice occurs on\u00a0Sunday, June 20, 2021, at 11:32\u00a0P.M.<\/span>\u00a0EDT<\/span><\/strong>.\u00a0 In 2021, it so happens that the solstice falls on the same day as\u00a0Father\u2019s Day<\/a>!<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/div>\n

The solstice marks the official beginning of summer in the Northern Hemisphere, occurring when Earth arrives at the point in its orbit where the North Pole is at its maximum tilt (about 23.5 degrees) toward the Sun, resulting in the longest day and shortest night of the calendar year. (By longest \u201cday,\u201d we mean the longest period of sunlight hours.) On the day of the June solstice, the Northern Hemisphere receives sunlight at the most direct angle of the\u00a0year.<\/p>

WHAT IS THE SUMMER\u00a0SOLSTICE?<\/h3>\n

In the Northern Hemisphere, the\u00a0June solstice<\/strong>\u00a0(aka\u00a0summer solstice<\/strong>) occurs when\u00a0the Sun reaches\u00a0its highest and northernmost points in the sky<\/strong>. It marks the start of summer in the northern half of the globe. (In contrast, the June solstice in the Southern Hemisphere is when the Sun is at its lowest point in the sky, marking the start of\u00a0winter.)<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The word \u201csolstice\u201d comes from Latin\u00a0solstitium<\/em>\u2014from\u00a0sol<\/em>\u00a0(Sun) and\u00a0stitium<\/em>\u00a0(still or stopped). Due to Earth\u2019s tilted axis, the Sun doesn\u2019t rise and set at the same locations\u00a0on the horizon each morning and evening; its rise and set positions move\u00a0northward or southward in the sky as\u00a0Earth travels around the Sun through the year. Also, the Sun\u2019s track in the sky becomes higher or lower throughout the year. The June solstice is significant because the Sun reaches its northernmost point in the sky at this time, at which point the Sun\u2019s path does not change for a brief period of\u00a0time.<\/p>\n

After the solstice, the Sun appears to reverse course and head back in the opposite direction. The motion referred to here is the apparent path of the Sun when one views its position in the sky at the same time each day, for example, at local noon. Over the year, its path forms a sort of flattened figure eight, called an analemma. Of course, the Sun itself is not moving (unless you consider its own orbit around the Milky Way galaxy); instead, this change in position in the sky that we on Earth notice is caused by the tilt of Earth\u2019s axis as it orbits the Sun, as well as Earth\u2019s elliptical, rather than circular,\u00a0orbit.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Does the Solstice Always Occur on the Same\u00a0Day?<\/strong><\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The timing of the June solstice is not based on a specific calendar date or time; it all depends on when the Sun reaches its northernmost point from the celestial equator. Therefore, the solstice won\u2019t always occur on the same day. Currently, it shifts between June 20, 21, and\u00a022.<\/p>\n

The Year\u2019s Longest\u00a0Day<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Summer Solstice is the day with the longest period of sunlight. Notice how the Sun appears highest in the sky at the solstice; its rays strike Earth at a more direct angle, causing the efficient warming we call summer. Because the Sun is highest in the sky on this day, you\u2019ll notice that your shadow (at local, or solar, noon, not clock-time noon) is the shortest that it will be all year. [Local noon is when the Sun crosses the local meridian (an imaginary line between the North and South poles) and is highest in the sky for the\u00a0day.]<\/p>\n

For those who live in the Southern Hemisphere, this is the shortest day of the year and marks the arrival of\u00a0winter.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

FREQUENTLY ASKED\u00a0QUESTIONS<\/h2>\n

Q: IS THE SUMMER SOLSTICE THE FIRST DAY OF\u00a0SUMMER?<\/h3>\n

A:<\/strong>Yes and no\u2026 Technically, it depends on whether we\u2019re speaking about the meteorological or astronomical start of the season. Most meteorologists divide the year into four seasons based on the months and the temperature cycle, which allows them to compare and organize climate data more easily. In this system, summer begins on June 1 and ends on August 31.\u00a0Therefore, the summer solstice is not considered to be the first day of summer, meteorologically\u00a0speaking.<\/p>\n

Astronomically, however, the first day of summer is said to be when the Sun reaches its highest point in the sky, which occurs on the summer solstice (June 20\u201322). Therefore, the summer solstice is considered to be the first day of summer, astronomically\u00a0speaking.<\/p>\n
