|| since today is 2000 ad the time difference between 10000 ad and today is approx 8000 years
since, the percesssion cycle repeats after every 26000 years
> so every 26000/360=72 years(approx.) a 1 degree rotation takes place.
>> so the total degree rotation taken place in 8000 years is
>> 8000/72= 111 degree (approx.)
> the constellation which is 111 degree apart from "aquarius" is
"scorpius"
or
>>it can also be calculated by using (1.) since the difference between two consecutive constellation is 30 degree
number of constellation between aquarius and const.
is ... 111/30 = 3.7 (approx.) but since the aquarius side of celestial sphere contains less constellations than its right counterpart the difference is reduced to 3
which again gives us the answer as constellation "scorpius"
thank you
There are two equinoxes evry year, in September and March, and a year passes between one vernal equinox and the next (in either hemisphere).
There is supposed to be an eclipse during next spring's equinox.
Next to the Big Dipper is the constellation Ursa Major, which is commonly known as the Great Bear. Just to the east of the Big Dipper is the constellation Leo, another prominent constellation in the night sky.
I'm not sure if you're talking about the "Seven Sisters" - but if you are, it's NOT a constellation. It's an open cluster of young, hot, blue stars located in the constellation Taurus the Bull, who is right next to Orion the Hunter. In fact, Orion is depicted as battling the Bull.
The brightest star (the star with the greatest apparent magnitude) in the sky, next to the Sun of course, is Sirius, also called Alpha Canis Majoris. In other words, it is located in the Canis Major constellation.
The next equinox is the vernal equinox, which takes place on March 19th or 20th, depending on where you are located on the earth.
one year. the vernal equinox is on March 21, or the first day of spring. an equinox is when day and night is equal (12 hours daylight, 12 hours nighttime). there is a Vernal equinox in spring, and an autumnal equinox on the first day of autumn (or fall), September 21.
There are two different types of equinoxes; the Vernal Equinox which happens on March 21 or 22. There is also a Autumnal Equinox which happens on September 21, 22 or 23.
There are two equinoxes evry year, in September and March, and a year passes between one vernal equinox and the next (in either hemisphere).
Ash Wednesday is always 47 calendar days before Easter Sunday. Easter Sunday is the first Sunday after the first Full Moon after the Vernal Equinox (March 21). Lets use 2011 as an example. The first full moon after the vernal equinox is Monday April 18th. Easter Sunday is the next Sunday after that (Sunday, April 24th). Now, subtract 47 days: March 9th is Ash Wednesday.
The answer is 2021. It's very interesting you ask this question. A friend of my parents whom I happened to meet on Easter 2010 (April 4, 2010) was celebrating his birthday on the same day. I asked him in when the next time this would happen. He responded "in 20 years". He's not entirely correct. It will be much sooner than April 4, 2030 (which actually happens to be not a Sunday). It's always easy to find out what day Easter will be if you remember this little phrase: Easter falls on the first Sunday after the first full moon after the Vernal Equinox. The Vernal Equinox is on 20 March. Check a calendar to see when the next full moon is after 20 March (see related link). Then, go to the next Sunday after that. If the full moon is on the Sunday after the Vernal Equinox, go to the next weekend.
The sunlight that hits the Northand South Poles is spread out that is why it is cold. On the equator it is a more direct hit from the sun.Answer:At the equinoxes (Vernal and Autumnal) unlight is tangential to the surface at either pole. At the. As the year progresses the angle of incidence changes. After the Vernal equinox, at the north pole, it increases to 23.5 degrees (Earth's tilt on its axis actually varies from near 22 degrees to 24.5 degrees) as the year progresses to the Summer Solstice. Ut then decreases to the rangential state. After the Autumnal equinox the sunlight does not strike the noth pole until the next Vernal equinox. These conditions are reversed at the south pole.
There is supposed to be an eclipse during next spring's equinox.

Easter is a moveable feast, meaning its date changes every year. It is typically observed on the first Sunday after the first full moon following the vernal equinox. Therefore, Easter can fall anywhere between March 22 and April 25. To determine if it is Easter today or next week, you would need to consult a calendar or use a formula to calculate the date based on the lunar cycle and equinox.
Easter falls on the first Sunday after the first full moon after the spring equinox. The equinox is march 20th and the first full moon after that is march 21st, which is a Friday. Easter falls on Sunday the 23rd. The latest Easter could be is if the moon is full one day before the equinox and the equinox happens to be monday. The next full moon would be about 27 days after the equinox. Easter then fall in or around the 24th.
The next Southern Equinox will occur on September 22, 2013. Sadly, you just missed the March Equinox by a few weeks, but luckily you will only have to wait 5 months to see the next one. The Northern Equinox happens every year around the end of March, while the Southern Equinox happens every year around the end of September.
