Equinox at the Poles<\/b><\/a><\/font>
March 20<\/i><\/font>
On the equinox, daytime and nighttime are equally 12 hours for nearly every location in the world. But at the North and South Poles the Sun would be seen circling the horizon. <\/font><\/a><\/font><\/td><\/tr>
The Shortening Days of August<\/b><\/a><\/font>
In August, the Sun is now much father south, and rises and sets further away from the places of the solstice. Also, the Sun is not as high in the noon sky. As a result, the Sun rises later and sets earlier, and the days are noticably shorter.<\/font><\/a><\/font><\/td><\/tr>
Approach of the Autumn Sky<\/b><\/a><\/font>
The Full Moon closest to the first day of fall is traditionally called the Harvest Moon. This is significant because, in the nights after the Harvest Moon, the waning gibbous Moon rises early after sunset and provides additional moonlight in the early evening hours. <\/font><\/a><\/font><\/td><\/tr><\/table>');
