DESCRIPTION:

Perihelion Day is the day of the year when the Earth is closest to the Sun.

This day changes from year-to-year, but it's usually in early January.

The world "perihelion" comes from the Ancient Greek words "peri" meaning "near" or "close", and "helios" which translates to "the Sun".

Perihelion is the opposite of Aphelion, when the Earth is at its furthest point from the Sun. "Apo" means "away, off, apart".
