Position of Celestial Bodies

The position of celestial bodies refers to their locations and movements in space, including stars, planets, moons, and galaxies. This positioning is influenced by gravitational forces, mainly from larger bodies like stars and planets. Astronomers use coordinates similar to latitude and longitude on Earth to map these positions in the sky. Understanding these positions helps us track the motions of celestial objects, predict events like eclipses, and navigate using stars. The study of celestial positions contributes to our knowledge of the universe's structure and the dynamics of celestial mechanics.
