First Day Spring (Spring Equinox) 20th

Did you know?

Vernal equinox (sometimes also referred to as the spring equinox or March equinox) is called the first day of spring. It is almost always either March 20 or March 21.

Equinox literally means “equal night.” And during the equinox, most places on Earth will see approximately 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of night.

There are equinoxes on other planets. All the planets in the solar system rotate on a tilted axis and therefore have seasons. Some of these tilts are minor (like Mercury, which is tilted at 2.11 degrees).

But others are more like the Earth (tilted at 23.5 degrees) or are even more extreme (Uranus is tilted 98 degrees!).
