circle
The lines on the globe are not called "latitude", any more than the marks on a thermometer are called "temperature". The lines on the globe that mark intervals of latitude are called "parallels" of latitude.
The Antarctic Circle is at 66 degrees 32 minutes S latitude and marks the point on the Earth's surface where the Sun does not appear above the horizon at the southern Winter Solstice. It also marks the northernmost point of the Antarctic Frigid Zone. The Tropic of Capricorn is at approximately 23 degrees 30 minutes S latitude and marks the point on the Earth's surface where the Sun is directly overhead at the southern Summer Solstice. It also marks the southernmost point of the Tropic Zone. The area between these two imaginary lines is known as the southern Temperate Zone.
The Tropic of Capricorn marks the point on Earth where the sun is directly overhead at the solstice. The Antarctic Circle marks the location where there is at least one 24-hour period of no sunrise/ sunset per year. The Tropic of Capricorn is north of the Antarctic Circle.
i think the equator :))))\
The Antarctic Circle is a line of latitude that marks earth/sun events. There is nothing about it that can be, or has been -- invaded.
The Antarctic is the opposite to the Arctic. The Antarctic Circle is at 66 degrees 32 minutes S latitude and marks the point on the Earth's surface where the Sun does not appear above the horizon at the southern Winter Solstice. It also marks the northernmost point of the Antarctic Frigid Zone. The Arctic Circle is at 66 degrees 32 minutes N latitude and marks the point on the Earth's surface where the Sun does not appear above the horizon at the northern Winter Solstice. It also marks the southernmost point of the Arctic Frigid Zone.antarctic circleThe opposite to the artic circle is the antarctic circlethe Antarctic (Antarctica) - south pole

The purpose of the Antarctic Circle is not to measure, it is to mark. The circle marks the latitude on earth beyond which there is at least one 24-hour period of no sunrise/ sunset per year.

The Tropic of Cancer is at approximately 23 degrees 30 minutes N latitude and marks the point on the Earth's surface where the Sun is directly overhead at the northern Summer Solstice. It also marks the northernmost point of the Tropic Zone. The Tropic of Capricorn is at approximately 23 degrees 30 minutes S latitude and marks the point on the Earth's surface where the Sun is directly overhead at the southern Summer Solstice. It also marks the southernmost point of the Tropic Zone.

The Antarctic Circle -- 66°S 33′ 44″ - the latitude in the Southern Hemisphere south of which marks locations on earth that experience at least one 24-hour day and one 24-hour night each year. The Antarctic Circle crosses Antarctica and the Southern Ocean.

The calendar is intended to mark the number of years since the death of King Herod the Great. The Roman abbot Dionysus Exiguus devised the new Christian calendar in 533. He knew that it was impossible to say when Jesus was born, but he knew, or thought he knew, when Herod died. So, he chose to begin his Christian calendar on the year of Herod's death, and he based this on the reign of the Roman emperor Augustus. Unaware that Augustus only adopted that name four years after his reign began, going by his birth name of Octavius until then, Exiguus commenced his calendar just 4 years too late.
Never.The Antarctic Circle marks the latitude on planet earth south of which at least one 24-hour period has no sunrise or no sunset.All latitudes north of the Antarctic Circle experience one sunrise and one sunset each day...until the latitude of the Arctic Circle, where the reverse occurs.
