It’s Official, Spring Returns

Spring arrives today.

The vernal equinox, as it is properly known, is the moment when the center of the apparent disc of the sun crosses the celestial equator and moves from the southern hemisphere into the northern hemisphere of the sky. A lot of people refer to the annual vernal equinox as “equal night.” This means an equal amount of daylight and darkness, due to the sun’s position above the equator.
