SKYWATCH
Winter Solstice
Dec. 21 marks an event that has been known, observed, and celebrated for thousands of years: the December Solstice. For us in the Northern Hemisphere, it marks the start of winter, and for those south of the equator, it signals the beginning of summer. In our sky, the sun will rise and set at the furthest points south. Likewise, the highest the sun will climb in our sky above the horizon will only be about 33 degrees (compared to around 80 in June), working together to make this the shortest day of the year. Happy Solstice!
