Yep, summer and winter solstice and vernal (spring) and autumnal (fall) equinox... But the equinox is when the day and night are closest to being equal at the equator. The imminent solstice is the summer solstice for the northern hemisphere... Longest day, Shortest night. But that's reversed in the southern hemisphere, so down under has the shortest day, etc. I hope this makes sense and that I haven't blown the facts or explanation!
