..Planet Zindau has an equal distribution of land and water between both hemispheres.
For this assignment, you are challenged to answer a series of questions about a fictional planet, Zindau, to demonstrate your understanding of Module Two’s seasonality concepts.

Further, the distance between these celestial bodies is approximate to the Earth and Sun.
