june 22 the declination reaches a maximum of 24.45° on june 22 summer solstice in the northern hemisphere and a minimum of -23.45 on december 21-22 winter solstice in the northern hemisphere. the sun, the moon, the planets and the stars all rise in the east and set in the west. and that’s because earth spins towards the east
