Aphelion
The day Earth is farthest from the Sun.
Here Earth moves slowest in its orbit, and the Moon's pull can shift the date by more than a day.
The name
The standard astronomical name.
Precision
The distance barely changes for hours on either side, but almanacs still give the time to the minute.

Every year
Between 1900 and 2100 it comes as early as July 2 at 13:23 UTC (1900) and as late as July 7 at 15:14 UTC (2083).Dates wobble through each four-year leap cycle and creep later across the centuries, about two days from 1900 to 2100: the orbit itself turns slowly, so its nearest and farthest points come a little later in the year.
