Dr. Hatem Odeh, director of the National Institute of Astronomical and Geophysical Research, said Friday that the planet had reached the farthest point of its orbit around the sun, "the peak of the apogee".
Ouda said in a statement to the Middle East News Agency that the factor that controls the temperature on the surface of the Earth is the angle of the sun's fall and not the distance traveled by the ground. The rays falling vertically to the surface of the earth give low energy to the centimeter
He explained that the difference between the distance between the sun and the earth, the difference in the amount of energy acquired by the land of the sun, pointing out that this difference does not affect the occurrence of summer and winter, proof of the appearance of the earth (near the sun) with the coldest days of the year (3 January), in the northern hemisphere and reaching the furthest point of the Aegean Sea (4 July).
The Earth is about 150 million kilometers from the sun, On January 3 and July 4 of each year, this average value is reduced by 4.2 million kilometers, which When the Earth approaches the Sun the January 3, the point it occupies is defined as "in the background", and when it is at the farthest point of the Sun on July 4, the Earth is at its apogee
