ecliptic (longitude, latitude) - Sun-centered to galactic (longitude, latitude)
Please provide values below to convert ecliptic (longitude, latitude) - Sun-centered to galactic (longitude, latitude), or change ↔.
ecliptic (longitude, latitude) - Sun-centered
Definition: A variant of the ecliptic coordinate system where the Sun is the reference point, and positions of objects are measured relative to the Sun’s position.
Historyandorigin: This system evolved from the basic ecliptic coordinate system to focus on heliocentric (Sun-centered) dynamics.
CurrentUse: Used primarily in planetary science and astronomy to study the orbits and positions of objects in the solar system relative to the Sun.
funfact: In this coordinate system, the Sun is always at the origin, making it crucial for understanding planetary movements!
galactic (longitude, latitude)
Definition: A coordinate system that defines the positions of objects within the Milky Way galaxy, using the center of the galaxy as the origin.
Historyandorigin: Introduced by astronomers in the early 20th century to study the structure and dynamics of the Milky Way.
CurrentUse: Widely used by astronomers to map and describe objects within our galaxy, especially stars and interstellar matter.
funfact: The Galactic coordinate system has the center of the Milky Way as its reference point, and is crucial for studying our galaxy!

How to Convert ecliptic (longitude, latitude) - Sun-centered to galactic (longitude, latitude)
1 ecliptic (longitude, latitude) - Sun-centered = 1 galactic (longitude, latitude)
1 galactic (longitude, latitude) = 1 ecliptic (longitude, latitude) - Sun-centered
we use cross multiplication method
ecliptic (longitude, latitude) - Sun-centered → galactic (longitude, latitude)
1 → 1
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*1=1*x
by simplifying
x=1.5
