Tropic of Cancer

The Tropic of Cancer marks the northernmost point where the sun appears directly overhead. This can lead to intense heating and destabilization of the atmosphere, creating conditions conducive to natural hazards like hurricanes, typhoons, and monsoons. The combination of warm ocean waters and a shifting pressure system can amplify these hazards in regions near the Tropic of Cancer.

I've been researching this as well.. so far I have found a symbol for breast cancer that is a "survivor sword"- this is the link.. http://www.cafepress.com/bcsurvivors. I am trying to design a tattoo to commemorate cancer survivors as well as those I love who have passed from the disease-- I wanted three symbols, one to represent remembrance, one for survival, and one maybe to represent the fight.. when I began I wasn't sure. So far what I have is this: an awareness ribbon that will include every color, for every type of cancer-- some sort of cross for those who have passed, an infinity symbol for the continuity of life even after physical death, and the third.. well I'm still undecided. Underneath the ribbon symbol will be the words "In honore vitarum," which means "In honor of lives." I think that covers everyone/everything.

Well I hope this helped, and if not, I would love to hear any ideas!

The Tropic of Cancer is at latitude 23°26′13.6″ north of the Equator.

The distance between two lines of latitude is approximately 69 miles.
1,645 ÷ 69 = 23.84 to two decimal places.
This places it on the Tropic of Cancer at 23 degrees 26 minutes approximately.

Vanuatu is an island off the northeast coast of Australia, and located in the Tropic of Capricorn. Vanuatu lies 2,848 miles south of the Tropic of Cancer.

Both! All lines of latitude between the equator and the tropic of cancer are high latitudes, and lines of latitude between the equator and the tropic of capricorn are considered low latitudes. ***THIS DOES NOT INCLUDE THE TROPICAL LATITUDES*** <- those I can't name

That would be 45° North latitude.

Kenya is at 1 degree north and 37 degrees east.

No.

Just because the people who named them thought that would be a good name. It's like asking why the zodiacs are called cancer and/or capricorn
