Default Saturn seasons

In a little over a week, the South Pole will arrive at its maximum distance from the circle of illumination thereby will be at the center of the 33,312 mile Antarctic circle.

No doubt they will trundle out the usual 'tilting' Earth next week while the beautiful and graceful rotations remain ignored even when other planets help explain why, in order to maintain constant orientation to the stars throughout an orbit, the Earth must turn once to the central Sun hence the June Solstice and Polar midnight at the South Pole and Polar noon at the North polar latitude.

In any case, contemporary time lapse is genuinely beautiful and I am in love with the journey of my life with the journey of the planet.
