Why do celestial bodies appear to move in the sky?
We observe celestial objects from the Earth. Since Earth rotates around the sun we see the celestial objects moving too. So basically due to the rotation of the Earth, celestial objects always seems to move from East to West.Hope that helped Of-course that must have helped, -Hailey xD LOL
Why was Aristotle wrong about the solar system?
He reasoned that since parallax could not be observed for celestial objects near the sun, then the earth was stationary. This erroneous assumption was because at the time he had no way of knowing that celestial objects were so far away that their parallax angles were too small to detect.He reasoned that since parallax could not be observed for celestial objects near the sun, then the earth was stationary.

How did aristotles' inability to detect parallax lead him to propose a geocentric model of the solar system?

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.
What are the celestial objects in your solar system?
Sun, Mercury, Earth's Moon, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune.
Why do all celestial objects in space not lie on the celestial sphere?
because the objects exist at different distances from earth.
How many plants are closer to the earth than Saturn?

What is Orion's longituides and langitude?
Longitude and Latitude are used to refer to positions ON EARTH and are not used to locate the position of astronomical objects. In astronomy, a celestial coordinate system is a system for specifying positions of celestial objects. Orion's position is:- Right Ascension 5h , Declination +5°
Together the four spheres of earth make up the?
Together the four spheres of the Earth make up the Earth system. These spheres are the geosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere and the atmosphere.
What is a description of solar system in which all planets revolve around earth?
Geocentricism is the belief that the Earth is the center of the Universe and all other celestial objects revolve around it. (The Geocentric Theory)
What objects can be measured by kilometers?
Bigger objects like celestial bodies ,Earth ,sun their radius are measured in kilometers .
