On 21 June, Summer Solstice takes place in Northern Hemisphere. The Northern Hemisphere has the longest day and shortest night. The exact opposite occurs in the Southern Hemisphere.
Solstice : The time when the midday Sun is directly overhead at one of the tropics is called solstice. A solstice is an astronomical event that happens twice each year, when the tilt of the Earth's axis is most inclined toward or away from the Sun, causing the Sun's apparent position in the sky to reach its northernmost or southern-most extreme.
In reality the Earth’s axis is not vertical, it makes an angle of 23.5° with the vertical or 66.5° with the plane of the Earth’s orbit.
