Weight: 80 times smaller Distance:60 times Earth’s radius

Important sunlight

Ocean tides

Earth’s rotation around the Sun The Sun The orbital speed: 30km/sec The length: 940mil.km The time: 365days 5hours 48min 45.7sec = 1sidereal year

Earth’s rotation around its axis Time of rotation: 23 hours 56 minutes seconds = 1 sidereal/astral day

The cause of the seasons is that the rotation axis is not perpendicular to its orbital plane, but makes an angle about degrees.
