Why does the Earth have seasons? A lot of people think it's because the Earth gets further away from the sun in winter, and closer in the summer. But, it's actually more interesting than that. In this episode, host Sabrina Cruz talks about how the Earth's tilt is responsible for winter, spring, summer, and fall. Part of the "Crash Course Kids Space Science" series.
