On the celestial sphere what is the North Stars declination?
The declination of Polaris (the north star) is: + 89° 19' 39'That's just 0.6725 degree from the north celestial pole.
Latitude is based on the celestial observation of?
Latitude is not based on any celestial observation, but rather the geographical location - how far north or south the place is - with respect to the equatorial circle. You could say it is based on terrestrial observation, if you like.
If you were standing at the earths north pole which would be located in the zenith?
If you were standing at Earth's North Pole, the North Star, also known as Polaris, would be located directly in the zenith, or straight overhead. This is because Polaris is situated very close to the celestial north pole in the night sky.
Can you see the position of the north celetial pole from Argentina?
No. Argenrtina is entirely south of the equator, so the north celestial pole is not visible.
How far from zenith is the celestial equator when it crosses the celestial?
The angle between the celestial equator and your personal zenith is equal to the latitude of your location. (Whether it's north or south latitude doesn't matter, and neither does your longitude or the time of day or night where you are.)
If you were standing on the earth's equator where would you look to see the north celestial pole Could you see it from Australia?
At the equator, the celestial north pole would be north, just at the horizon. In the southern hemisphere, for instance in Australia, the north celestial pole would be north, and as many degrees BELOW the horizon as your latitude. For instance, if you are 10 degrees south of the equator, the celestial north pole would be 10 degrees below the equator.On the other hand, for people in the southern hemisphere, the celestial SOUTH pole would be ABOVE the horizon; this same pole is below the horizon for anybody in the northern hemisphere.
Is the north star north of the celestial equator?
Yes. The North Star is aligned with the celestial north pole.
Where would you go on earth if you wanted to be able to see both the north celestial pole and the south celestial pole at the same time?
To see both the north celestial pole and the south celestial pole at the same time a person would need to standing at the equator. The atmospheric haze may interfere near the horizon may obstruct the view.
Can you see the north celestial pole from the US?
Yes. For any point on Earth that is north of the equator, the north celestial pole is above the horizon.
How much of the overall sky is north of the celestial equator?
Half. The other half is south of the celestial equator.It depends on the where you're looking from (at the equator it is half and half). If you are at latitude 30 degrees north, then about 2/3 of "your" sky is north of the celestial equator (30 degrees north means that you are one-third of the way north from the equator to the North Pole.)
What countries are non-extradition with Australia?

What is the celestial pole?
The celestial pole is the point in the sky directly above the Earth's North or South Pole. The North Celestial Pole is located near the North Star (Polaris), while the South Celestial Pole does not have a bright star near it. Stars appear to rotate around these points due to Earth's rotation.

The declination of Polaris (the north star) is: + 89° 19' 39'That's just 0.6725 degree from the north celestial pole.

A star that is located 30 north of the celestial equator has?
A declination of +30 degrees. This means it is 30 degrees north of the celestial equator.
In what constellation will you find the North Celestial pole?
The North Celestial pole can be found in the constellation Ursa Minor, commonly known as the Little Dipper. The star Polaris, also called the North Star, lies very close to the North Celestial pole and is a helpful navigational reference point for finding true north.
