Target entity: north Galactic pole
Context triple: [North Polar Spur, extendsToward, north Galactic pole]
  • A. North Ecliptic Pole
    The North Ecliptic Pole is the point in the sky where the Earth's axis of orbital motion around the Sun intersects the celestial sphere in the northern direction, lying perpendicular to the plane of the ecliptic.
  • B. Northern Galactic Cap
    The Northern Galactic Cap is a large region of the sky located above the plane of the Milky Way’s disk, commonly targeted by wide-field astronomical surveys for deep imaging and mapping of extragalactic objects.
  • C. Southern Galactic Cap
    The Southern Galactic Cap is the region of the sky lying south of the Milky Way’s disk, widely used in large astronomical surveys for studying extragalactic objects with minimal interference from Galactic dust and stars.
  • D. Galactic anticenter
    The Galactic anticenter is the point in the sky directly opposite the center of the Milky Way, located in the outer region of our galaxy’s disk.
  • E. Northern Celestial Hemisphere
    The Northern Celestial Hemisphere is the half of the sky north of the celestial equator, containing many prominent constellations and the north celestial pole.
