The Equator,assigned at zero degree latitude.
You're talking about the Prime Meridian ... the imaginary line that defines the origin of longitude on Earth.But issue must be taken with your use of the terms "from" and "to". No meridian, including the Prime one, has a defined beginning or end point. They simply join the poles.
An imaginary line drawn from the two stars at the front of the Big Dipper (Dubhe and Merak) points toward Polaris, the North Star. This line extends through the "pointer" stars, leading to Polaris, which is located in the constellation Ursa Minor. Sirius, on the other hand, is located in the constellation Canis Major and is not aligned with this line.
The imaginary line is called the Arctic Circle. North of the Arctic Circle, in regions like northern Norway, Sweden, and Finland, the sun does not set for at least one day during the summer solstice in June.
In the northern hemisphere the line is the arctic circle. North of this line the sun does not rise on December 21st each year with more days having the lack of sun the further north you go. The sun does not set on June 20/21st in the same region with more days with full sun the further north you go during the summer. In the southern hemisphere the line is the antarctic circle.The same event takes place just reverse of the regions in the northern hemisphere. ie more sun in the winter and less sun in the summer.
In "Julie of the Wolves," Miyax is drawn to the idea of the North Star because it is a symbol of guidance and direction. The North Star is traditionally used for navigation, and for Miyax, who is lost in the wilderness, it represents hope and a way to find her way home. The North Star also serves as a connection to her Inuit culture and heritage.
The prime meridian
Latitude is imaginary lines that measures distance north or south of the equator. Longitude is imaginary lines that measures distance east and west of a line drawn between the North and South Poles and passing through the Royal Observatory at Greenwich, England.
The straight line between the poles is the Earth's axis of rotation. The curved lines between the poles and along the surface are the meridians of longitude.
A Meridian or Meridian Line is an imaginary line drawn between two points. In geography these two points are an imaginary arc on the earths surface from the North to the South Poles. In astronomy it is an imaginary circle in a perpendicular plane to those planes of the celestial equator and horizon.
They are imaginary lines drawn on spheres such as the earth, sun, moon, planets to simplify the location of points of interest.
No. The equator is an imaginary line drawn on the Earth's surface, all the way around, mid-way between the north and south poles.
In the globe it is called the axis. In a sphere it is called the diameter.
Latitude lines are imaginary lines that run East to West but measure North to South on the Globe. I remember latitude is fatitude. Longitude lines go North to South but measure East to West. I remember it as LONGitude.
line of demarcation is an imaginary line running down the middle of the Atlantic from the North Pole to the south. Pope Alexander VI drew it in 1493

That would be the "International Date Line" which is skillfully drawn to avoid crossing any land mass.
