Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn latitudes.
Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn latitudes, years 2014-2024, every six months.
Calculated using the PHP Science Labs website, Obliquity of the Ecliptic and Nutation in Obliquity (Using IAU 2000B nutation series); i.e. true obliquity of the ecliptic, as used by the National Land survey of Finland, Finnish Geodetic Institute, and the GIT Barents website:
