Called a solstice, many cultures mark yesterday&#8217;s date as a change of seasons &#8212; from autumn to winter in Earth&#8217;s Northern Hemisphere and from spring to summer in Earth&#8217;s Southern Hemisphere. The featured image was taken just before the longest night of the 2025 northern year at Stonehenge in United Kingdom. There, through stones precisely placed 4,500 years ago, a 4.5 billion year old large glowing orb is seen setting. Even given the precession of the Earth&#8217;s rotational axis over the millennia, the Sun continues to set over Stonehenge in an astronomically significant way. via NASA <a href=\"https:\/\/apod.nasa.gov\/apod\/ap251222.html\"><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yesterday the Sun reached its southernmost point in planet Earth&#8217;s sky.
