A Metiorite (a shooting star) can go about 26 miles per second or 93600mph In the earths atmosphere.

Speed:1560miles per min

Time:10min

Distance:15600 miles. Aprox

So a shooting star can go about (^)

The entire celestial "globe" and all the stars on it appear to rotate at the rate of almost exactly 15 degrees per hour ... less than 0.3% different from that number By an incredible, almost miraculous coincidence, the rate of rotation of the stars is almost exactly the same as the rate of the earth's rotation on its axis, also within 0.3%.

The whole sky, and everything in it, appears to move 15 degrees every hour.

The illusion is due to the fact that the earth is rotating at the rate of 15 degrees per hour, and the direction in which your eyes are pointing therefore shifts at the same rate.

15 degrees per hour (this is a full circle, 360 degrees, in 24 hours).

15 degrees per hour (this is a full circle, 360 degrees, in 24 hours).

From the Earth, we see the stars moving at about 15 degrees per hour across the sky.

The stars actually ARE moving in space, but because of the enormous distances, it would take several lifetimes for anyone to be able to NOTICE that they were moving.

If you're watching continuously, you see the stars make a complete revolution ... 360 degrees ...

from one night to the next.

If you glance at them at exactly 9:00 tonight, and then glance again at exactly 9:00 tomorrow night,

the difference will be about 1 degree.

You know that the star itself doesn't move at all in an hour, right? It is only us humans riding on the the spinning Earth that makes it LOOK like the stars are moving.

The Earth spins at just a trifle under 15 degrees per hour. Specifically, the Earth spins precisely 360 degrees in 23 hours 56 minutes.

All the stars (including the sun) appear to move across the sky at the rate of 15 degrees per hour.

That's 360 degrees in 24 hours. Does that tell you anything ? By now ... 2009 ... it should be enough to tell you that it's not the stars doing the rotating, it's us ! Riding on a rotating earth.

The planets and moon also move at nearly the same rate, but not exactly ... they actually do move on their own, so they don't stick to exactly the same 15 degrees per hour that the stars do.

Yes, it will rise.

If you mean, at what time will it rise, that depends on the time of the year. The same star will rise 4 minutes earlier every day.

Do Stars move in clockwise or counter clockwise direction?

If you stand at any point in the earth's northern hemisphere, the stars appear to move counterclockwise around the north pole of the sky. If you stand at any point in the earth's southern hemisphere, the stars appear to move clockwise around the south pole of the sky. Both of these appearances are exactly that ... appearance. The stars don't move, at least not fast enough for a human being to perceive their motion over the course of a lifetime. The apparent motion of the stars is due to the rotation of the earth, which continually rotates a person's direction of view.


Why do stars move across the sky?

They seem to move as the earth turns. Their apparent motion is illusory. They DO actually move, however, but they are so far away that their motion can only be determined over long time periods with very precise instruments. Keep in mind, however, that all stars are actually moving: stars move around in response to the gravity of other stars and material within and around the galaxy. All the stars are rotating around the center of the galaxy and the galaxy itself is moving in relation to other galaxies. However, almost none of this motion is fast enough over the scale of distance involved for us to notice it within our lifetimes.


Which instrument do you use to see stars and planets?

A spectrometer is used to determine the composition of stars, and how fast they are going relative to Earth.

Do the stars appear to move across the sky at nightime?

It is not definite that the objects that you saw is satellites, but there is a high percentage that they are. There are TV satellites and others as well. Not every single one of them are from one country though. I saw a ton of them last night and I was overjoyed to see such wonder. I thought they were planets or maybe comets but comets are much faster than the ones you saw and planets don't really move that fast ether. So the chance of them being satellites have increased even more! Hope I've answered your question. Check out other websites to confirm.

Why do stars and planets appear to move across the skye?

It is the opposite principle as looking out a moving cars window, close objects move fast while far away objects move slow. It is a speed to distance ratio, a beam with a axis on one end moves faster at the free end and slower at the fixed end. When looking out a moving car window, you would be on the free end of the beam looking at the fixed end of the beam. (the far way object.) when on earth looking at the stars, you are on the fixed end looking at the free end.(the stars)
