What is the latitude and longitude of constellation Aries?
Constellation Aries does not have a specific latitude and longitude as it is a celestial region in the sky rather than a physical location on Earth. It is located along the ecliptic, an imaginary line that represents the path of the sun and planets across the sky.
What period of time does the sun take to complete one trip around the sky along the ecliptic?
The sun takes about 365.25 days to complete one trip around the sky along the ecliptic, which is why we have a year with that duration.
What path does a planet follow across the sky?
Planets in the solar system except Pluto orbit the sun along the ecliptic. The ecliptic is an imaginary line like the equator round the Earth. The rings of Saturn give you a good analogy. Pluto is probably a captured asteroid and not part of the original solar system. It's orbit dips above and below the ecliptic like the moon around the Earth
What direction does the sun rotate on the ecliptic?
The sun appears to move eastward along the ecliptic path, which is the apparent path that the sun follows in the sky as seen from Earth. This motion is due to Earth's orbit around the sun.
Which constellations are not visible from North America?
The Southern Cross and the Crux constellation are not visible from North America because they are located in the southern hemisphere. Another constellation that may not be visible from North America is the Eridanus constellation, which is best viewed from the southern hemisphere.
What is a zociac constellation?

What is an zodiac constellation?
A zodiac constellation, or zodiacal constellation is a constellation that runs along the ecliptic, which is the narrow path in the sky that the sun, moon and planets follow through the year.Ancient people quickly realized that the seven MOVING lights in the sky (sun, moon, mercury, venus, mars, Jupiter & Saturn - which is how we got the 7 days of the week) all moved in this narrow path of sky. That narrow path of sky went right through the same 12 constellations (Aquarius, Pisces, Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpius, Sagittarius and Capricornus).That path is the Ecliptic. The constellations along the Ecliptic are the constellations of the Zodiac - Zoo means animals and Zodiac means "ring of animals"
What star sign is Orion?
Orion is a constellation - not a star sign. "Signs" are the constellations along the ecliptic, or better known as the zodiac.
How many degrees is Leo the constellation?
The constellation Leo spans about 30 degrees along the ecliptic, which is the apparent path of the Sun across the sky. This makes Leo one of the larger constellations in the zodiac.
Zodiacal constellation lying north of Aquarius?
There is no zodiacal constellation north of other zodiacal constellations. A zodiacal constellation is a constellation that is along the ecliptic. There are zodiacal constellations to the left and right of Aquarius (Pisces & Capricornus, respectively), but just other, regular constellations above and below Aquarius.

Does the moon ever appear in Orions belt?
