When is the Summer Solstice?

The summer solstice is one of the 24 solar terms, which falls on June 20, 21, or 22 of the Gregorian calendar every year. On the summer solstice, the sun moves to 90 degrees of ecliptic longitude (the summer solstice point, currently in Gemini), and the position of the sun directly above the ground reaches the northernmost point of the year, almost directly above the Tropic of Cancer. At this time, the daylight hours in all parts of the Northern Hemisphere reach the longest of the year. For areas on and north of the Tropic of Cancer, the summer solstice is also the day when the sun is highest at noon in the year. In Beijing, the daylight on the summer solstice can last up to 15 hours, and the sun's altitude at noon can reach 73°32′. On this day, the Northern Hemisphere receives the most solar radiation, nearly twice as much as the Southern Hemisphere.
