Want this question answered?
we have a horizon which means that we cannot see all of the earths surface
Horizon line. :)
The angle below horizontal that an observer must look to see an object that is lower than the observer. Note: The angle of depression is congruent to the angle of elevation (this assumes the object is close enough to the observer so that the horizontals for the observer and the object are effectively parallel; this would not be the case for an astronaut in orbit around the earth observing an object on the ground).
The horizon is the name normally used. hyposinthnise
They believed it was like a giant plane, and that if you went too far toward the horizon you would fall off the edge of the earth.
The horizon.
Exactly due north of him, and on the horizon.
Full, large or whole. Maybe the question was meant to be...How would the Earth appear to an observer on the moon during a full moon?
it would still appear to rotate
A circle through the Earth's sphere perpendicular to the observer's latitude
It depends on its intrinsic brilliance and its distance from the observer
Well, the horizon is just where the sky and earth APPEAR to meet. So it's kinda your decision... :)
Horizon
The zenith is the direction directly above the observer. The astronomical horizon is the plane that is perpendicular to that direction, i.e. horizontal. The "true horizon", however, is the cone from the observer to the point on the earth, below which you can not "see over", so it is a small amount lower in angle. In practice, the two horizons can be considered to be the same, because the height of the observer is often small in comparision to the diameter of the earth, unless the observer is standing on a tall point, such as a mountain.
If you're talking about sky as in sky on this planet, then your answer would be the horizon (the point were the ground meets the sky from any vantage point on the surface). Or you could be talking about the atmosphere, which is the boundary between the earth and space and keeps life alive, and air on earth.
Both lunar and solar eclipses are the result of positioning 3 astronomical bodies (earth, sun and moon) in a straight line relative to the observer. A solar eclipse is observed when the sun, moon, and earth are positioned in a straight line with an observer on the earth. A lunar eclipse is observed when the sun, earth, and moon are in a straight line with an observer on the earth. A lunar eclipse, as observed by an observer on the earth would appear as a solar eclipse as observed by an observer on the moon.
