Mean longitude Mean longitude Mean longitude is the ecliptic longitude at which an orbiting body could be found if its orbit were circular and free of perturbations. While nominally a simple longitude, in practice the mean longitude does not correspond to any one physical angle. From these definitions, the "mean longitude", "l", is the angular distance the body would have from the reference direction if it moved with uniform speed, measured along the ecliptic from ♈︎ to the ascending node, then up along the plane of the body's orbit to its mean position. Mean longitude, like mean anomaly, does not measure an
Navy Ten Nautical Miler throughout the route are also marked off in nautical miles rather than statute miles. Awards will be presented three deep in the following categories: In April 2010, race coordinators were contacted by Navy personnel serving in Farah, Afghanistan interested in running a satellite version of the race there. As such, the race was ran concurrently in both locations, with winners in each category crowned locally in both locations. The two locations were connected via satellite uplink. Navy Ten Nautical Miler The Navy Ten Nautical Miler (Navy 10 nm, 11.5 mi) is a run held at Naval Support Activity Mid-South in
