🔍 Key Concepts

• Celestial sphere and how it is imagined in navigation • How a time diagram shows the apparent daily motion of stars and the sun • What point you would look down from to see the celestial sphere rotating like a clock face

💭 Think About

• Picture the Earth inside the celestial sphere. From what point above the Earth would the stars appear to move in circular paths like the hands of a clock on a flat diagram? • Which reference point gives you a top‑down view of hour circles and right ascension lines spreading out like spokes? • Think about where the Earth’s axis points on the celestial sphere and how that relates to daily rotation diagrams.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option corresponds to the point where the Earth’s axis intersects the celestial sphere in the Northern Hemisphere. • Check which location would make the apparent motion of the stars look like rotation around a central point on the diagram. • Eliminate any choice that would show the sphere from a side view instead of a true top‑down view.
