NUTATION OBLIQUITY
Obliquity
The angle between the equatorial and orbital planes (or the rotational and orbital poles) of a body. The obliquity of the ecliptic for the Earth is the angle between the equatorial and ecliptic planes.

Nutation
Nutation is the short-period oscillations in the motion of the pole of rotation of a freely rotating body that is undergoing torque from external gravitational forces. Nutation of the Earth's pole is discussed in terms of components in obliquity and longitude.
