.

also referred to as the Northern Tropic

.

(the Tropic of Cancer, is currently 23°26′13.3″ (or 23.43703°) north of the ‘Equator’)

(it is the most northerly circle of latitude on the Earth at which the Sun can be directly overhead)

(this occurs on the ‘June solstice’, when the Northern Hemisphere is tilted toward the Sun to its maximum extent)

(its ‘Southern Hemisphere’ counterpart, marking the most southerly position at which the Sun can be directly overhead, is the ‘Tropic of Capricorn’)

(these tropics are 2 of the 5 major circles of latitude that mark maps of the ‘Earth’, besides the ‘Arctic’ and ‘Antarctic’ Circles and the ‘Equator’)

(the positions of these 2 circles of latitude (relative to the ‘Equator’) are dictated by the tilt of the Earth’s axis of rotation relative to the plane of its orbit)
