Day and night are caused by the Earth spinning on its axis The axis is an imaginary straight linejoining the north pole to the south pole The Earth's axis is on a 23° tilt, which makes day and night times uneven (not a perfect 12 hours each) It takes the Earth 24 hours to complete a full rotation which makes up one day Sunset occurs when your part of Earth rotates away from the sun

Earth's orbit around the Sun is tilted, causing different parts of the world to get different amounts of sunlight, which creates what we call "seasons". In Australia, we experience summer when the Southern hemisphere is tilted towards the sun We experience winter when the Northern hemisphere is tilted towards the sun
