The Longest Day

from maniacworld.com
Wednesday, June 20, was the longest day of the year. The solstice itself was at 7:09 p.m. (EDT). That means that from today on, the days ~ daylight time, actually ~ will be getting shorter again. Enjoy them while you can! (story and video): http://www.csmonitor.com/Science/2012/0620/Summer-Solstice-Why-the-days-will-shorten-from-here-on-out-video
