The subsolar point is the point on the Earth's surface where the Sun is perceived to be directly overhead at solar noon. At this location, the Sun's rays are hitting the Earth at a 90-degree angle, and this point shifts as the Earth rotates and orbits around the Sun. The subsolar point changes throughout the year due to the tilt of the Earth's axis (approximately 23.5 degrees) and its elliptical orbit.
