Tomorrow Tuesday the Earth is at its furthest point from the Sun, the Aphelion Phenomenon Causes Cold Temperatures

TRIBUNJATENG.COM – On Tuesday (6/7/2021) the earth will be at its furthest point from the sun, which is 152.1 Million Kilometers (Km).

While the closest distance occurred in January, which was 147.1 million km.

The phenomenon of the earth being at its farthest point from the sun is called the aphelion phenomenon.

Aphelion is actually not a rare phenomenon, but an annual phenomenon.

Reporting from the Britannica Encyclopedia, simply, aphelion is when the earth is at its furthest point from the sun.

Because it is far from the sun which is the source of heat, it is not surprising that the earth’s temperature becomes colder.

For the territory of Indonesia, the peak of aphelion this year will occur on July 6 at 05.27 WIB.

This year the distance between the earth and the sun at aphelion is 152,095,566 km.

The shape of the path or orbit of the earth is oval, so that the earth has one point farthest and one point closest.
