What currently is the Earth's angle towards the sun?

Question

Thank you so much!!

Answer 1

Always 66.5 degrees from the earths orbital plane. Hence we get the changing seasons all over the planet as the earth orbits the sun through the year.

Answer 2

The earth is always angled at 23.5 degrees from the vertical axis. The hemisphere you are in, and the time of year, determines whether you are angled towards the sun or away from the sun.
To determine your angle, you need to know your latitude. If you are in the northern hemisphere, the angle of the noon sun today is roughly 78.5 - (your latitude), since we are approximately between the equinox and the winter solstice. For example if you are at 40 degrees north, the noon angle is about 38.5 degrees from the horizontal.

The angle at a given latitude varies from (x+23.5) on the summer solstice to (x-23.5) on the winter solstice, and x on the equinoxes. The angle is 90 degrees at the equator on the equinoxes and 90 degrees at the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn on the summer and winter solstices, respectively.

None of this includes refraction and other complicating factors.

Answer 3

It depends upon the latitude and the time of the year.During the Autumnal Equinox and Vernal(spring) Equinox,the places over the equator will have 90 degree angle and the places over the tropic of cancer and capricon will have an angle of 66.5(90 -23.5) degrees .
On summer solstice,the places over the tropic of cancer will have 90 degree angle and the equator will have 66.5 (90 - 23.5) degree and the tropic of capricon will have 43 [ 90 -(23.5+23.5)] degree angle.
