What is the name of earths nearest star?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The Sun is the nearest star to Earth.

After that, the nearest one that we know about is called Proxima Centauri. (Actually, on average, alpha Centauri A, alpha Centauri B, and alpha Centauri C - Proxima - are the same distance, but Proxima can at times be slightly closer than the other two).

It's considered at least possible (that is, papers have been published in serious astronomical journals about the possibility) that the Sun may have a very faint red or brown dwarf companion at a distance of perhaps a tenth of a light year, which has so far escaped detection.

How do you tell direction with a watch?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

With an ANALOGUE watch, wait till the watch reaches the hour. , say 3;00pm.

At 3:00pm point the minute finger to the Sun. The due South is halfway between the '3' and '12' . On an analogue watch that would be halfway between '1' & '2'.

Hence north would be between '7' & '8'. East, between '10' & '11' and West between '4' & '5'.

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The time of sunrise and sunset is very dependent on the precise location and the date in question. Please re-post your question with the date and the city name or ZIP code. If you add the WikiAnswers category "Sunset Times", I'll see it.
