Hour Angles
Hour angles are a unit of angular measurement used in astronomy to describe the position of celestial objects relative to an observer's local meridian. One hour angle corresponds to 15 degrees, reflecting the Earth's rotation rate of 15 degrees per hour. Hour angles are crucial in celestial navigation and the tracking of astronomical objects.
Gradians
Gradians, also known as grads or gon, are a unit of angular measurement where a full circle is divided into 400 gradians. This unit is particularly useful in fields such as surveying and civil engineering, especially in some European countries. One gradian is equivalent to 0.9 degrees, making it convenient for calculating right angles and dividing circles into decimal fractions.
