Winter Solstice In Mexico

The Iztaccihuatl volcano is being viewed during the winter solstice in Mexico City, an astronomical phenomenon that happens twice a year on Earth and alters the length of the days. NASA explains that this occurs because of the Earth's rotation axis, which is tilted at an angle of 23.4 degrees relative to its orbit around the Sun, causing the sun's rays to be distributed unevenly between the northern and southern hemispheres.
