What is the sun's apparent path through the background of stars called?
The sun's apparent path through the background of stars is called the ecliptic. It is the apparent annual path that the sun follows as seen from Earth.
What celestial line is created by Earth's revolution around the sun?
The celestial line created by Earth's revolution around the sun is called the ecliptic. This is the apparent path that the sun appears to follow across the sky over the course of a year.
What is The apparent change in position of an object with respect with respect to a distant background is called?
Parallax id the apparent shift in position of an object with respect to the background due to a shift in view point.
What is the imaginary sphere on which all objects in the sky seem to be located?
The imaginary sphere is called the celestial sphere. It is used in astronomy to track the apparent movements of celestial objects as if they were projected onto the inside of a sphere surrounding the Earth.
What is the yearly path through the stars taken by the Sun is?
That's the "ecliptic". It's an imaginary circular line in the sky that's inclined 23.5 degrees to the Celestial Equator, and intersects the CE at the equinoxes. The constellations along the line are the constellations of the Zodiac.

The place where the extended axis of the Earth would touch the celestial sphere is called the celestial what?
That is also called the axis; the "end-points" of this axis are called the celestial poles.
What is the imaginary sphere on which all objects in the sky seem to be located?
The imaginary sphere is called the celestial sphere. It is used in astronomy to track the apparent movements of celestial objects as if they were projected onto the inside of a sphere surrounding the Earth.
What is an instrument for simulating the apparent motions of the sun moon and other celestial bodies against a background of stars?
Solar System models, especially mechanical models are called orreries.
It is now known that the celestial objects which appear to move backwards among the stars are?
The celestial objects that appear to move backwards among the stars are planets in our solar system. This phenomenon is called retrograde motion and is an apparent backward motion that occurs when Earth passes by these planets in their orbits.
Why is the sun called the apparent path?
When we view the rising and setting of the sun, we assume the viewpoint of a motionless Earth, but we know that the Earth is actually rotating on its axis, and the sun does not orbit the Earth.
What is the shadow of a celestial called?
it is called its umbra
How do you use celestial in a sentence?
In the past I have read a book called 'The Celestial Globe'.
What is passage of a celestial body across the disc of a larger one?
The apparent passage of one celestial body across the disc of another one for an observer is called a transit. If the transiting body hides a significant portion of the one behind, it is called an occultation or eclipse.
What is the unit for apparent brightness?
The apparent brightness of stars is called "apparent magnitude", and it is written with a lowercase "m" after the number.
