What is the vernal equinox?

The vernal equinox is the fourth solar term in spring. Seen from the earth, the sun moves counterclockwise along the ecliptic, and the ecliptic and the equator have two intersections on the celestial sphere, which are 180 apart. The point where the sun passes through the celestial equator from south to north along the ecliptic is called vernal equinox, and the other point which is180 from vernal equinox is called vernal equinox. The annual vernal equinox is about 19 to 22 in March of the solar calendar.

Causes of vertical eggs at vernal equinox

There is an interesting phenomenon. It is said that eggs can stand on the vernal equinox. What is the reason? Because the sun shines directly at the equator on the day of the vernal equinox, and the time of day and night in the northern and southern hemispheres is the same. It is said that on the vernal equinox, the stability of eggs standing is the best. According to historical records, the tradition of dividing eggs in spring originated in China 4000 years ago to celebrate the arrival of spring. The vernal equinox is the balance of time and day and night, which is why people all over the world like to lay eggs. It is said that in the spring equinox of 1985, Gray, an art professor at the University of Alaska in the United States, and his students stood up 204 eggs in a room. Actually, laying eggs has nothing to do with the vernal equinox. Whether an egg can stand up depends on the gravity of the earth and the conditions of the egg itself. The vernal equinox has little effect on the gravity of the earth, but the composition of egg yolk has a great effect on the standing of eggs. The sinking of the yolk will lower the center of gravity of the egg, and the eggshell itself is uneven. As long as you find three bumps, the egg can stand up after it is balanced. It's the vernal equinox. Let's try it together and see if we can lay an egg.
