The point when a planet, following its orbital path, is farthest from the Sun.

The point in an planet’s orbit when it is farthest from the Sun.

Point in the orbit of a body orbiting the Sun where it is farthest from the Sun.

point on the Earth’s orbit at which the Earth is farthest from the Sun

In an orbit around the Sun, the furthest point from the Sun.

The direction of the furtherest point in a planets orbit from the Sun.

The orbital point of greates distance from the Sun.

The position in a heliocentric orbit at which the orbiting object is at its greatest distance from the Sun.

The pointof a plant's or comet's orbit most distant from the sun.

Point in a planetary orbit where the planet is farthest from the sun, the source of gravitational attraction.

The point where a body's orbit is furthest from the Sun. It will be travelling at its slowest at this point.

Point of a heliocentric orbit farthest from the Sun.

the outermost point in a solar orbit

The point in a body's orbit where it is closest to the Sun. See also perigee and apogee.

is the point at which a comet in its elliptical orbit about the Sun is farthest from the Sun.

position of a planet (earth) when it is farthest from the Sun in its orbit (occurs around July 3)

The aphelion is the point in orbit where an object is the farthest from its central body. So the aphelion is also the maximum distance of an orbit. The opposite is the perihelion.

The point that occurs when the earth is furthest away from the sun. Auxin: a plant hormone, also called IAA, responsible for cell elongation, fruit development, and formation of adventitious roots. Carotene: yellow-orange colored, fat-soluble plant pigments found in chloroplasts and chromoplasts that aid in absorption of light for photosynthesis. Chlorophyll: a group of green colored pigments a and b that are the primary pigments involved in the absorption of light for photosynthesis. Compound leaf: a leaf, made of numerous leaflets, that is connected to the stem through a petiole.

The point on a planet's elliptical orbit at which it is furthest from the Sun.

The point in an object's orbit where it is farthest from the Sun. Earth is at aphelion around July 3 each year. The opposite of perihelion.

The point most distant from the sun, of an object in solar orbit.

The point on the elliptical path of an object in orbit about the Sun that is most distant from the Sun

The farthest point from the Sun of any object orbiting the Sun. Sun Facts

The point in an orbit around the Sun at which an object is at its greatest distance from the Sun (Opposite of perihelion).

the point farthest from the sun in an object’s orbit

The point in an orbit furthest from the Sun.

The point in the orbit of a planet that is farthest from the Sun.

The point in the orbit of the Earth (or other planet, etc.) farthest from the Sun.

point when a planet or other body is furthest from the sun.

The point on the annual orbit of a body (about the sun) that is farthest from the sun; at present, the earth reaches this point (152 million kilometer from the sun) on about 5 July. Opposite of perihelion.

The point in a planet's orbit that is most distant from the Sun.

The point in the earth's orbit furthest away from the sun.

The place in a planet's orbit which is farthest from the Sun. See Perihelion.

The point in a body's orbit which is furthest from the Sun.

The aphelion is the point of orbit which is farthest from the sun.

Point in the earth's orbit where the earth is farthest away from the Sun (summer for us)

The point on the earth's orbit that is farthest from the sun. Although the position is part of a 21,000 year cycle, currently it occurs around July, when the earth is about 3 million miles farther from the sun than at perihelion. This term can be applied to any other celestial body in orbit around the sun. It is the opposite of perihelion.

The point in a body's orbit (e.g. Earth's) around the Sun where the orbiting body is farthest from the Sun.

The point on the orbit of the earth (or any other body in orbit about the sun) that is farthest from the sun; the opposite of perihelion. At present, aphelion occurs about July 1, when the earth is about three million miles farther from the sun than at perihelion, but the seasons in which aphelion and perihelion fall undergo a cyclic variation with a period of twenty-one thousand years. The date of aphelion passage is advancing slowly (toward dates later in the calendar year) at a rate of about one-half hour each year. This is a consequence of the eastward rotation of the line of apsides at a rate of about 11 sec of arc per year and the precession of the equinoxes of about 50 sec of arc per year, for a total of 61.9 sec of arc per year. See apocenter, apogee.

The point in the orbit of a planet, comet, etc. which is furthest from the sun. See also: Perihelion.

point of maximum distance from the Sun, in the orbit of a body of the Solar System.

The point in the Earth's orbit that is farthest from the Sun. Currently the Earth reaches aphelion in early July.

The point of greatest separation between a planet and the Sun. See also

The point in its orbit where a planet is farthest from the Sun.

point in an object's orbit around the Sun that is furthest from the Sun.

That point in a solar orbit which is farthest from the Sun.
