Summary
| Description |
English: In this image, the analemma for planet Earth is plotted with width highly exaggerated, which permits noticing that it is very slightly asymmetrical (due to the two-week misalignment of the apsides of the Earth's orbit and its solstices). On November 3 the equation of time can be up to 16min 23sec fast; on February 12 it can be up to 14min 20sec slow. |
