The Earth's Orbit and Seasons

The document explains the Earth's orbit around the Sun, which is egg-shaped and not a perfect ellipse, and details the impact of the Earth's tilt at 23.5° on the changing seasons. As the Earth revolves, the tilt causes different hemispheres to receive varying amounts of sunlight, resulting in warmer or colder weather depending on the season. The Northern Hemisphere experiences spring and summer when tilted towards the Sun, while the Southern Hemisphere experiences winter and autumn during the same period.
