What is an equinox
  • 1 answers

Kritika Trehan 8 years, 3 months ago

An equinox is a point in the year when daytime and nighttime are exactly the same length, 12 hours each. Equinoxes occur twice a year, usually on March 20 and Sept. 22, when the Earth is tilted neither toward nor away from the sun. The word is derived from Latin: 'equi,' which comes from <i>aequus</i>, meaning equal, and <i>nox-', meaning night.</i>
