Hexa-Contades
Hexa-contades are an ancient unit of angular measurement, originating from Babylonian astronomy, where the circle was divided into 60 parts, with each part further divided into 6 degrees. This system reflects the base-60 numeral system used by the Babylonians and was foundational in early astronomical calculations.
Seconds
Seconds of arc, often simply called arcseconds, are a further subdivision of minutes of arc, with 60 seconds in one minute. This small unit is used for extremely precise angular measurements, such as those needed in astronomy, optics, and surveying, where even minute differences in angle can be significant.
