Textbook Question
Chapter 2, Problem 25EAP
Does It Make Sense?
Decide whether the statement makes sense (or is clearly true) or does not make sense (or is clearly false). Explain clearly; not all of these have definitive answers, so your explanation is more important than your chosen answer.
25. Because of precession, someday it will be summer everywhere on Earth at the same time.
