If you take every point on earth that's located at equal distances from the

north and south poles, all those points form a line around the "middle" of

the earth. That line is the equator. We define it as the line where latitude

is zero at every point on it.

The equator is located around the center of the earth. If you were to move perpendicular from the equator, the distance to the north and south poles would be the same.

It is on the south slope of Cayambe, an inactive volcano in the Ecuadorian Andes. The equator passes over an elevation of 4,690m at that point.

Every point on the equator is exactly half-way

between the north and south poles.
