Green St., McHenry The sun shines exactly half of the 24-hour day and the other half is night. Gen­ erally speaking, on that day the earth's axis is perpen­ dicular to the plane of the earth's orbit. The tilt of the earth, mov­ ing from one area to another, is caught when the earth's axis stands perpendicular to the plane of its orbit around the sun--and if the earth did not lean, or tilt, then there would be no seasons. Night and day would be of equal length and our weather would be affected. Winters would not be as cold and summers not as hot, if indeed there was much of what we know as seasonal weather at all.
