The changing location of the Sun is shown in several ways. The image on the left
is the view of the Earth as seen from the Sun - another way of thinking of this, this is
where the Sun is directly overhead. To get a sense of the season, look to see if the North
or South Pole are visible.
The second view shows a person who will point to the Noon Sun (not to scale of course). As the person's latitude changes, and the days of the year change, the location of the noon time Sun will change as well. |
