The maximum latitude of the circle of illumination on any of the solstices is approximately 23.5 degrees north or south, depending on the specific solstice (either summer or winter). This is due to the tilt of the Earth's axis relative to its orbit around the sun, causing the sun's rays to be most directly overhead at these latitudes.
Force of Gravity is why the earth circles.
The equator is the only parallel that is a great circle because it is centered on the Earth's axis of rotation. This means that it divides the Earth into two equal hemispheres and its circumference is the maximum possible for a circle on the Earth's surface. Other parallels are smaller circles and not great circles.
the earth doesnt fall.
The distance around the Earth at the equator is like the circumference of a circle. It represents the total distance one would travel if they were to walk around the Earth at the equator.
The circle of illumination intersects the North Pole on the spring and autumnal equinoxes, March 20 or 21 and September 22 or 23, when the Earth's North and South Poles are not tilted toward or away from the sun, but are both at 90 degrees to the sun's rays. The sun is directly above the equator, and every location on Earth has 12 hours of daylight.
Well, once I looked up "circle of illumination" --(geology) The edge of the sunlit hemisphere, which forms a circular boundary separating the earth into a light half and a dark half. (circle-of-illumination) --I could just *begin* to understand your question, which is still very unclear. Please rephrase it. It just doesn't make sense.
The Earth circles around the Sun. This movement is known as the Earth's orbit and takes one year to complete. The concept of the Sun orbiting the Earth was believed in ancient times, but modern science has confirmed that the Earth orbits the Sun.

It is a symbol in some Christian denominations to have a circle inside a square (or sometimes a square inside a circle). This represents the connection between heaven (the circle, which is one eternal round) and earth (the square, with the 'four corners' of the earth). It is very popular in the symbolism of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (commonly called Mormons). Look at the "related links" below for examples.
The Earth is represented by the symbol ⊕, which consists of a circle with a cross inside. This symbol is commonly used in astronomy and astrology to denote the planet Earth.
The logo you are describing belongs to the World Health Organization (WHO). The earth inside a red circle with a yellow ring around it represents global health and unity. The WHO is a specialized agency of the United Nations responsible for international public health.
It is a circle because, the earth is a circle, and the equator stretches all the way around the earth.
Any circle on the Earth's surface whose center is at the center of the Earth is called a "great circle". Any circle with its center anywhere else is called a "small circle". Spiritually, many consider the kaaba (Mecca) to be the center of the Earth's surface.
YES. A small circle is simply a circle around the earth that does not fly over the direct opposite place on earth that a plane took off from. A great circle goes full circumference of earth, where a small circle does not. Being a circle they both fly in a constant direction.
the earth is a sphere but if you look at it as a 2d shape it is a circle
