New Delhi: Every year this event happens on March 21, but this time due to the leap year, one day before i.e. on March 20, the day and night will be equal.
Wednesday will be special for astronomers, as day and night will be of equal duration. Usually, this event happens on March 21 every year, but this time due to the leap year, one day before i.e. on March 20, the day and night will be equal. According to scientists, twice a year is equal to day and night. Apart from 20-21 March, this also happens on 23 September. Being perpendicular to the equator, the sun’s rays fall directly, leading to a 12-hour day and a 12-hour night. The Sun will then enter the Northern Hemisphere, making the days longer and the nights shorter.
