Without an atmosphere, the equatorial curve would show minimum daily values on the solstices in June when the sub-solar point is located at 23.5°N and in December when the sub-solar point is at latitude.

Without an atmosphere, the equatorial curve would show minimum daily values on the solstices in June when the sub-solar point is located at 23.5°N and in December when the sub-solar point is at 23.5°S latitude.

Explanation:

At the sub-solar point, the sun strikes directly at the surface with an angle of 90 degrees at a given point.

Solistice refers to that point in time when the sun’s zenith is located at the farthest point from the equator.  

During summer solistice on June 21, the sun’s zenith reaches northernmost point, sub-solar point is fixed at 23.5°S Tropic of Cancer making the earth tilt 23.4 degrees

During winter soliscitse on December 21, the sub-solar point is fixed at)  Tropic of Capricorn.
