    Enjoy

    Summer Solstice


    In the northern hemisphere, the longest day of the year (near June 22) when the Sun is farthest north. In the southern hemisphere, winter and summer solstices are exchanged. The summer solstice marks the first day of the season of summer. The declination of the Sun on the (northern) summer solstice is known as the tropic of cancer (23° 27').

    Yup. The days get shorter in the Summertime and longer in the Wintertime.

    Edit: Unless you go back the way from Autumn and Spring.
