Vieneo's Northward Equinox
By MARY STULL

The northward equinox on Vieneo occured earlier this month. An equinox is commonly regarded as the moment the plane of the equator passes through the center of the sun's disk, which occurs twice each year. In other words, it is the point in which the center of the visible sun is directly over the equator.



The instants of the equinoxes are currently defined to occur when the ecliptic longitude of the sun is either 0° or 180°.

On the day of an equinox, daytime and nighttime are of approximately equal duration all over the planet. They are not exactly equal, however, due to the angular size of the sun and atmospheric refraction. The word is derived from the Latin aequinoctium, from aequus (equal) and nox (genitive noctis) (night).
