5.2K views · 282 reactions | Ever wonder 'what is a summer solstice'? During the solstice, the sun is at its highest point--over the Tropic of Cancer--and there are the most hours of daylight and least hours of darkness of any day in the year. Solstices happen every June and December, occurring at the same time around the world and marking the year's longest and shortest days. ☀️ #sun #summersolstice #longestdayoftheyear | ABC7NY | Facebook
