Myths about the equinox

Yesterday at 4:02PM marked the arrival of the autumnal equinox. In my never ending quest for truth, I googled it and found some interesting facts. (Remember, everything on the internet is true:)

 

 

Myth: You can stand a raw egg straight up on the day of the equinox.

Truth: If you have enough focus and patience, you can do this anytime of year.

 

Myth: There are equal hours of both day and night (12 hours).

Truth: The one place where you'd probably see the most equality between day and night is at the equator, somewhere like Quito, Ecuador.

 

Myth: Shadows cannot be cast at noon during the equinox.

Truth: Although the sun's new angle will change someone's shadow, the circumstance to allow a person's shadow to entirely disappear are almost impossible.

 

Enjoy the change of the seasons and I hope to see you at the Gotham picnic today.
