Astronomers believe that billions of years ago, a Mars-sized object smashed into Earth, knocking our planet over and leaving it tilted at an angle. | BISouthAfrica

That ancient bump is what caused the Earth's seasons times of the year that have very specific weather patterns and hours of daylight that vary depending on the latitude.

"I've always been very interested in designs that combine science and art. When I learned to code as part of my Biology PhD, I wanted to apply coding to my design work as well," Lutz told Insider."I decided to create a series of astronomy maps, because there is a lot of wonderful open-source data in the astronomy community."

. That means that as our planet travels in a nearly circular orbit around the sun, different parts of the globe receive different amounts of sunlight throughout the course of a year.Earth is divided into a northern and southern hemisphere by an imaginary ring called the equator. When the northern hemisphere is leaning toward the sun in June, it experiences summer. That's when the sun's rays hit that part of Earth more directly, heating Earth's surface.

The tilt of the Earth's axis also defines the length of daylight hours, which are shortest in each hemisphere's winter. This is most dramatic at the planet's poles, above the Arctic Circle., the northernmost town in the US, the darkness lasts from mid-November until mid-January.
