  • Quirkie
    The Sun (and the solar system) is tilted about 5.5 degrees compared to the galaxy. The Earth is tilted 23.4 degrees compared with the Solar system. At the moment these are adding together so that the tilt of the Earth is about 29 degrees with respect to the galaxy, but this changes over thousands of years due to the Earth's precession.
