Minutes

Minutes of arc are a finer subdivision of degrees, with 60 minutes making up one degree. Each minute is further divided into 60 seconds of arc. This unit allows for precise angular measurements and is commonly used in fields like astronomy, navigation, and geodesy, where detailed accuracy is required for mapping and celestial observations.

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.
