When to Use Seasons Earth 3D Explorer - Best Sessions and Limits
Open the Seasons Earth 3D Explorer when you need axial-tilt seasons with obliquity 23.44 deg, solstice declination about +/-23.44 deg, and perihelion about 0.983 AU in early January - without a climate or weather model.
A five-minute classroom demo
A five-minute classroom demo starts when you open Seasons Earth 3D Explorer, jump to Jun solstice then Dec solstice, and pause so students see the yellow subsolar point at about +/-23.44 deg - faster than a flat textbook diagram alone.
Tilt beats distance in Seasons Earth 3D Explorer
Tilt-beats-distance literacy in Seasons Earth 3D Explorer stays readable when you keep the facts panel open for obliquity 23.44 deg beside perihelion about 0.983 AU in January during northern winter.
Sessions Seasons Earth 3D Explorer does not fit
Sessions Seasons Earth 3D Explorer does not fit are climate or insolation-energy models, live city day/night maps, or comet-tail tours. Use Earth 3D Globe, Sidereal vs Solar Day 3D Explorer, or Precession of the Equinoxes 3D Explorer instead. Walk the controls in the Seasons Earth 3D Explorer step-by-step guide.
