How does one know when he or she is in the presence of an extraterrestrial?
At this point in earth history no ET's have been found, so you will not meet one.
The Earths orbit is closest to the sun in January so why is it cold in the northern hemisphere during January?
The tilt of the earth's axis, away from the perpendicular to its orbital plane, has a much greater influence on the climate in any one place than the earth's distance from the sun has. As you correctly point out, the earth's orbital distance from the sun is completely overshadowed by other effects.
Factors contribute to earths climate?
