What else can I help you with?
Earth spinning on its axis?
Yes, the earth does spin around its axis. That's what causes the apparent movement of the sun and the stars. If your question was rather what spinning on its axis mean? Ever saw a sphere spinning? It means that.
Is there a star that rises in the west and set in the east?
The Earth rotates, not the stars, so unless the Earth starts spinning backwards, no.
Do stars move during the night?
Yes, stars appear to move across the sky at night due to Earth's rotation. This motion is caused by the Earth spinning on its axis, making it seem like the stars are moving when actually it's the Earth moving.
What special name is given to spinning stars that transmit radio waves?
Pulsars are spinning stars that emit radio waves in narrow beams. These beams are like lighthouses in space, rotating at precise intervals and creating a pulsing effect as they are detected by radio telescopes on Earth.
What is something besides the earth that needs an axis?
Anything that rotates. Stars, planets, moons, galaxies, a rotating wheel, a spinning football, etc.
What can cause the stars to change their position?
The Earth spinning around.

Do the stars move from one place to other?
No, It`s an illusion caused by the spinning earth.
Is there a star that rises in the west and set in the east?
The Earth rotates, not the stars, so unless the Earth starts spinning backwards, no.
Which star is opposite to earth?
There is no specific "opposite" to Earth. The Earth is a sphere: it has no front or back. In addition, the Earth is continually spinning. If you were to go outside at night and look at the stars over time, you will notice the stars are moving.
What causes the stars and other objects to move across the sky each night?
the stars "move" because of the way earth spins so then the constellations and stars look like they're moving but it realy is the earth that moves. In other ways the stars stay ware they are while the earth is spinning
Do stars move during the night?

Do stars leave during the day?
No they don't. The stars are always there in the sky. The earth turns one full rotation in 24 hours. During the day, our side of the earth is facing towards the sun (which is a star itself). During the night, our side of the earth is facing away from the sky out into space, where all the stars are. So the stars never go away, it is only the earth spinning around.

Why isn't altazimuth system a useful system for plotting positions of stars?
Because the Earth is spinning at a rate of 15 degrees per hour.
What is something besides the earth that needs an axis?
Anything that rotates. Stars, planets, moons, galaxies, a rotating wheel, a spinning football, etc.
Why do stars appear to rotate on an imaginary North-South axis once every 24 hours?
That's because Earth is spinning on its axis.
