File talk:Equatorial coordinates.png

Hi, I was looking for illustrations to teach my kids Astronomy and noticed that the illustration of "right ascension" and "declination" on the pages corresponding to this globe are a bit confusing. Here's why and suggested changes: 1. although the declination is pointing to the proper angle going north and south(i.e. pointing to the arrow on the illustration of the globe); should it not first point out that declination is latitude, which is stated in the text 2. therefore, the right ascension should also point to longitude initially, 3. another illustration should be added to point out how these two are measured relative to one's position on earth

Confusing Illustration
It almost looks like the orange RA arrow in the diagram is pointed away from the center of the sphere, not along the surface of the sphere.
