What else can I help you with?
Latitude in a definition?
the angular distance of a place north or south of the earth's equator, or of a celestial object north or south of the celestial equator, usually expressed in degrees and minutes
What celestial object is about 24000 miles from the earth?
There is no celestial object at that distance.
Is cloud a celestial object?
No. A celestial object is an object in outer space, such as a planet, star, meteor or comet. Clouds are not in outer space, therefore they are not a celestial object.
What are the three celestrial coordinates?
The three celestial coordinates are right ascension, declination, and distance. Right ascension is analogous to longitude and measures the angle of a celestial object eastward along the celestial equator. Declination is similar to latitude and indicates how far north or south an object is from the celestial equator. Distance refers to the space between the observer and the celestial object, often measured in light-years or parsecs.
What never sets at your latitude?
Any sky object within (your latitude) degrees of the north celestial pole.
From your location what is the best definition of a celestial object?
From Earth, a celestial object is any object outside or above Earth's atmosphere.
Is the north star north of the celestial equator?
Yes. The North Star is aligned with the celestial north pole.
What celestial (space)object can a meteoroid come from?
The space rock is the celestial space object that a meteoroid comes from.
Why must the astrolabe be lined up with north?
The astrolabe needs to be lined up with north so that the user can accurately measure the altitude of a celestial object. By aligning the astrolabe with north, the user can ensure that the measurements taken are correctly referenced against the horizon and celestial coordinates.
What is the celestial equivalent of latitude?
The declination of a celestial object is the exact equivalent of latitude.
What is the range or values for declination?
Declination, which measures the angle between the direction of a celestial object and the celestial equator, ranges from +90 degrees to -90 degrees. A declination of +90 degrees indicates the North Celestial Pole, while -90 degrees indicates the South Celestial Pole. Values between these extremes represent the position of celestial objects in the sky relative to the celestial equator.
How can one derive the escape velocity of an object from a celestial body?
To derive the escape velocity of an object from a celestial body, you can use the formula: escape velocity (2 gravitational constant mass of celestial body / distance from the center of the celestial body). This formula takes into account the gravitational pull of the celestial body and the distance of the object from its center. By calculating this value, you can determine the minimum velocity needed for an object to escape the gravitational pull of the celestial body.
