What is the study of celestial mechanics?
Astronomy: Noun: The branch of science that deals with celestial objects, space, and the physical universe as a whole.
What is the study of the motion of planet Earth and the other planets called?
Celestial Mechanics. Or Astronomy
Where might you find the celestial sphere celestial equator and celestial poles?
These are imaginary locations in the sky. The "celestial sphere" is a blanket term for everything beyond the Earth. The celestial equator is the plane of the Earth's equator extended out into space. The "celestial poles" are extensions of the north pole and south pole into space. It's sometimes convenient to describe objects out in space with reference to terrestrial coordinates.
Latitude is based on the celestial observation of?
Latitude is not based on any celestial observation, but rather the geographical location - how far north or south the place is - with respect to the equatorial circle. You could say it is based on terrestrial observation, if you like.
Does a star that is located 30 degrees north of the celestial equator have 30 degrees declination?
Yes. "Declination" on the celestial coordinate system is the counterpart of "latitude" on the terrestrial coordinate system. Positive and negative declination correspond respectively to north and south latitude.
What system is the celestial coordinate system most similar to?
The celestial coordinate system is exactly analogous to the terrestrial positioning system based on latitude and longitude. Terrestrial latitude ---> celestial 'declination'. Terrestrial longitude ---> celestial 'right ascension', where one 'hour' = 15 degrees.
Is there tertestials mentioned in the bible?
1Cr 15:40[There are] also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial [is] one, and the [glory] of the terrestrial [is] another.

Will Jesus be in the Celestial heaven according to Mormonism?
Yes. According to the doctrine of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church), there are three levels or kingdoms of heaven, the Celestial, Terrestrial, and Telestial. The Celestial Kingdom is the highest, and is the eternal home of God the Father and Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ has the ability to visit those in the Terrestrial kingdom, but his home is the Celestial Kingdom at the right hand of His Father, God.
