Zodiac. Few people realize that the zodiac is a sun sign, not a star sign. One's "astrological sign" represents the constellation behind the sun at the time of one's birth.

Few people also realize this changes on a 24 thousand year cycle, and is off about one constellation now from the historical values of two thousand years ago.

What are the components of celestial sphere?

The components of the celestial sphere include the celestial equator (dividing the sky into northern and southern hemispheres), the north and south celestial poles (points around which the sky appears to rotate), and celestial coordinates (such as right ascension and declination) used to locate objects in the sky. Additionally, the ecliptic (the apparent path of the Sun) intersects the celestial equator at two points known as the vernal and autumnal equinoxes.


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.


Where on the celestial Sphere would you look for the planets?

You can find planets on the celestial sphere along the ecliptic, which is the apparent path that the Sun takes across the sky throughout the year. The planets in our solar system generally follow this same path, although they may deviate slightly due to their individual orbits.
