lance sets in as the earth swings
back again into that part of It's

part of the ellipse, and by the
end of December we are again
close to the minimum point.
The mean, or average, distance.

The principal reason why we
have winter when the earth is
nearest the sun is because at that

away from the sun that the rays
of the latter fall at a low angle
to the plane of the horizon and
thus lose a great deal Of their
