The Little Dipper is a constellation, a patterns of stars in the night sky that people pick out. It is not possible to give a distance of a constellation from Earth because it consists of many stars at very different distances from the earth. For example, Polaris, the brightest star in that constellation, is about 433 light years from Earth. But the second brightest star, Beta Ursae Minoris (also called Kochab) is about 131 light years from earth. The third brightest star is 487 light years away
Rotation . . . . . the "Day" Revolution . . . . the "Year"
The earth's rotation is when it spins around its axis,while an earth's revolution is an complete circle around the sun which takes approximately 365 1/4 days which gives us a year
The seasons, because of the tilt of the Earth's axis.
Obviously, it is called a year. It is also one full revolution of the earth. The earth revolves around the sun, and it rotates on its axis.apexRevolution
No. Earth's seasons are a product of Earth's revolution around the sun.
It is the varying position of a constellation over a period of weeks.
It doesn't. The Earth, being an inanimate object, does not experience human emotions such as temptation.
It doesn't to any significant degree.
Beta is not a constellation.
No, the moon is not a constellation. The moon is a natural satellite that orbits the Earth, while a constellation is a group of stars that form a pattern in the sky as seen from Earth.
The constellation Grus is approximately 17.08 light-years away from Earth.
The earth is on the east side of the sun (summer) and when that is so, the constellation Gemini is on the west side of the sun. The sun is blocking the view of the constellation Gemini.
The constellation Norma is approximately 171 light-years away from Earth.
These combined give us day and night, and seasons.
The Earth does not belong to a constellation, but the Sun is located in the Milky Way galaxy in the Orion Arm. The constellations we see from Earth are based on the position of stars as seen from our vantage point.
No, not really. But the Earth's winds, likes the westerlies or the easterlies, are affected by Earth's rotation. These winds affect aeroplanes. Therefore, the Earth's revolution indirectly affects the direction of movement of aeroplanes.
