1. The Sun is rising in the east and will be on your meridian in 2 hours. What time is it?

10 AM
Birth of the Universe: The expansion of the universe began with the hot and dense Big Bang. The universe continues to expand, but on smaller scales gravity has pulled matter together to form galaxies Galaxies as Cosmic Recycling Plants: The early universe contained only two chemical elements: hydrogen and helium. All other elements were made by stars and recycled from one stellar generation to the next within galaxies like our Milky Way. Life Cycles of Stars: Many generations of stars have lived and died in the MIlky Way Earth and Life: By the time our solar system was born, 4½ billion years ago, about 2% of the original hydrogen and helium had been converted into heavier elements. We are therefore 'star stuff,' because we and our planet are made from elements manufactured in stars that lived and died long ago.
Altitude at the meridian is = (90 + declination), in the southRise south of due east, set south of due west
3 - 1 = 2 hours earlier than Greenwich This means I am 2 * 15° = 30° away from Greenwich since I am earlier I am WEST of Greenwich at 30°W
