In coordinates, the apostrophe (') and double apostrophe (") typically denote minutes and seconds, respectively, when expressing angles in degrees. For example, a coordinate of 30° 15' 30" means 30 degrees, 15 minutes, and 30 seconds. This format is commonly used in geographic coordinates, navigation, and astronomy to provide precise location information.
It means1) "of, pertaining to, or connected with astronomy" (the study of stars)2) "large in number or size"The idiomatic meaning of "huge," "having a high numerical value," or "exorbitant" (as in astronomical prices) came about because of the large numbers that are frequently used in astronomy, for the vast distances in space.

A fixed location in space can be represented by coordinates such as latitude and longitude on Earth, or by celestial coordinates like right ascension and declination in astronomy. These values provide a specific reference point in space that can be used to locate and navigate to a particular position.
