Dad’s an idiot too, that’s not why winter happens!

iirc the seasons are caused by
the wobble in earth’s tilt. In summer your hemisphere of the earth is tilted “forward” so that it’s directly facing toward the sun, and in winter that hemisphere is tilted away to point not directly at the sun.That’s why when one hemisphere has summer, the opposite hemisphere has winter. If seasons were caused by a change in the earth’s orbit distance then the entire planet would experience the same season at the same timeI was not quite right
That’s not really the “wobble in Earth’s tilt”, that’s just the tilt itself. You have a much better understanding than Calvin’s dad though.
Yup you’re right, as you said, i was close but not quite right
And actually on the Northern hemisphere we are farther from the sun during summer than winter.
Did we skip a comic? It seems like there should have been one where Calvin was concerned that the sun would go out.
Tomorrow - it’s only a day away.
Yeah those guys are the worst. Damn glad that isn’t us.
