axial tilt Earth's axis Angled rotation of the Earth axial inclination Axial inclinations

In astronomy, axial tilt, also known as obliquity, is the angle between an object's rotational axis and its orbital axis, which is the line perpendicular to its orbital plane; equivalently, it is the angle between its equatorial plane and orbital plane. Wikipedia
