Longitude of the ascending node is the unit vector (0, 0, 1), which is the normal vector to the "xy" reference plane. For non-inclined orbits (with inclination equal to zero), Ω is undefined. For computation it is then, by convention, set equal to zero; that is, the ascending node is placed in the reference direction, which is equivalent to letting n point towards the positive "x"-axis. Longitude of the ascending node The longitude of the ascending node (☊ or Ω) is one of the orbital elements used to specify the orbit of an object in space. It is the angle from a reference direction, called
The Equator monument The Equator monument The Equator monument is located on the equator in Pontianak, Indonesia. It marks the division between the northern and southern hemispheres. The monument consists of four iron wood poles, each with a diameter of about 0,30 metre, with frontage bollard height is two pieces as high as 3,05 radian place backside bollard and the signpost dart as high as 4,40 metres. Its location is in "Jalan Khatulistiwa", North Pontianak, about 3 kilometres from the city centre of Pontianak. The equator monument is not on the equator any more. The equator has moved slightly southwards and there is
