In this video:
During the period when the Earth is furthest from the sun (aphelion), the average temperature of the entire planet is about 4°F (2.3°C) higher than when it is closest to the sun (perihelion). On average, the intensity of sunlight falling on Earth during aphelion is about 7% less than during perihelion. Despite this, the Earth ends up being warmer during the period in which it is furthest away from the sun.

Ready to learn more red hot facts? Then check out this video and find out about The Soviet Superman: Red Son: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-pfdQC2SW4tw.html

Interesting video but can be confusing unless you understand this fact: at aphelion the earth is tilted such that the northern hemisphere is tilted towards the sun...each and every time that aphelion occurs. This tilt of the northern hemisphere towards the sun causes summer to occur. The larger amount of land in the northern hemisphere heats up quickly; at the same time the large amount of water in the southern hemisphere (which was just heated up during their summer at perihelion) is cooling down slower (retaining more heat). The hotter land masses in the northern hemisphere, plus the warmer water in the summer hemisphere, gives the earth an overall higher temperature at aphelion. Sort of a repeat but I hope it makes it a bit clearer.

thank you i was still confused lol

@eugenetswong 7 лет назад

I find that strange. I thought that according to Simon, the north tilts away at aphelion.

@myworstenemy680 6 лет назад

Thank you, that is a more thorough explanation. Does this mean that Earth tilt has a much greater effect on average Earth temperature than its' distance to the Sun? Somebody call Mercury and give them the good News!! (joke)

@IHateUniqueUsernames 6 лет назад

+Eugene Wong You are correct. I believe +Glenn Krieger got the term confused. +MyworstEnemy Yes. Exactly that. What matters more is how much heat Earth can retain over the period of time, than the amount of heat the Sun actually radiates that actually reaches Earth. The tilt plays a role by exposing the majority of the land/water-mass of the planet, thus playing the bigger role in allowing the trapping of heat.

I feel like someones telling me I'd be warmer standing further from a fire....

@thundercuntinashoefullofpiss 4 года назад

i just lit a candle at arms length and no heat could i feel but when i placed the candle in my right eyesocket i lost my vision burnt off my eyelashes and my brows are replaced with scorch marks with 3rd degree burns to my once rosie cheeks so forgive me for doubting this videos claim but i find the closer one gets to a flame the more hot one will become

Probably the same reason you can grab the pizza rolls out of the oven and throw them on a plate, but when you go to sit down and take a bite you burn the roof of your mouth, LOL.

@mobro4374 6 лет назад

so the effect of a 23 degrees tilt is greater than 5 million kilometers of distance difference. cool!

Didn’t you watch the video at all? It’s about specific heat. You can test that in water compared to sand and dirt quite easily.

@uunholyy_ 3 года назад

At aphelion it's summer in northern hemisphere, north has warmer summers because land actually absorbs light better than water

@TonyP9279 11 месяцев назад

The best way to understand this is that the days are longer in the summer so the surface is being heated for a longer time, more than half of the 24 hour cycle. This has a more significant effect than the orbits eccentricity.

@zdy373 Месяц назад

In the southern hemisphere( Africa- East...Kenya). It is the coldest month when it comes to Aphelion...while the same time flying to northern hemisphere e.g western Europe is very hot( summer). God is just wonderful

@girlbye4233 3 года назад

So say if it didn’t tilt but kept spinning? Would earth still have seasons or any other change of weathers?

@louf7178 7 лет назад

What about a comparative emissivity component? Cloud cover? This may be over-simplified. Theory ALWAYS needs to be empirically tested, and even then one can be fooled. Over-confident without qualifying bounds exclaimed.

@victorlopes2082 Год назад

I belive the reason for it will be the fact that when nearer Sun the earth's magnétic shield is stronger duee to próximity to the Sun, acting in repeling as to atracting.

@elinope4745 8 лет назад

wasn't aware it was hottest when furthest away. before watching, i would say it is likely because of angle of earth and exposed surface to sunlight. edit: and i was wrong.

@grahvis 8 лет назад

Not exactly, the axial tilt is indeed why we get the seasons, why some parts see changes in temperature winter to summer. In the video they are talking about the change in temperature caused by a different reason. We have two systems operating at the same time. The warming effects of sea water can also be seen in the different temperatures of the Arctic and Antarctic. The Artic is sea ice whereas the Antarctic is a land mass.

Yeah. So the northern hemisphere gets winter on perihelion. And on aphelion summer

@mickael486 7 лет назад

so because of all the water in the southern hemisphere, being closer to the sun (about 3 million miles closer) doesn't have much of a temperature difference when comparing the same seasons of both hemispheres?..?

@jrogertrudel6356 7 лет назад

Mickael Mc - hope you realize that solar heat can not be transmitted in a vacuumed space. Our good earth was created flat and enclosed with a celestial Dome with waters above. Our sun is approximately 3200 to 3400 miles high inside this dome and the heat is transmitted through our atmospheric medium from an electrically generated sun (solar lamp). Look at the sky and you will also see this above ocean of blue .

@MK-ex4pb 7 лет назад

J Roger Trudel heat, which is infrared energy absolutely can travel thru a vacuum. And the sun isn't electrical. I've looked at the sky and i don't see any water unless it's raining

Can you not speak a little faster so we can follow you a little less and be more confused as to which hemisphere is away from the sun the longest? Is that not possible! Speak faster and run you sentences a little closer without as much pause and we will surely be pleased at the misunderstanding of the entire subject!

@jrogertrudel6356 7 лет назад

Sorry, but here you are describing the theoretical helocentric model which has now been proven not to exist. All of the new true scientific information is now presenting our earth as being flat in the geocentric model. A good percentage of the world's population is seriously looking at this geocentric model and upon some research you will need to reconsider this presentation
