In the real world, the summer solstice is a phenomenon that occurs when the tilt of a planet's semi-axis, in either the northern or the southern hemisphere, is most inclined toward the star (in Earth's case, the Sun) that it orbits. Earth's maximum axial tilt toward the sun is 23° 26'. This happens twice each year - once for each hemisphere; during these times, the sun reaches its highest position in the sky as seen from the north or the south pole. However, what is seen in {{NL}} is actually known in the real world as a "polar day," a day on which the sun is visible for more than 24 hours. The event takes place in the Arctic Circle and Antarctic Circle on the days surrounding the summer solstice. | In the real world, the summer solstice is a phenomenon that occurs when the tilt of a planet's semi-axis, in either the northern or the southern hemisphere, is most inclined toward the star (in Earth's case, the Sun) that it orbits.
