An equator is the intersection of a sphere's surface with the plane perpendicular to the sphere's axis of rotation and midway between the poles. The Equator usually refers to the Earth's equator: an imaginary line on the Earth's surface equidistant from the North Pole and South Pole, dividing the Earth into the Northern Hemisphere and Southern Hemisphere. Other planets and astronomical bodies have equators similarly defined. Earth's equator is about 40,075 kilometres (24,901 mi) long; 78.7% is across water and 21.3% is over land.
The latitude of the Earth's Equator is by definition 0° (zero degrees). The Equator is one of the five notable circles of latitude on Earth, with the others being the two Polar Circles: the Arctic Circle and the Antarctic Circle, and the two Tropical Circles: the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn. The Equator is the only line of latitude which is also a great circle. The imaginary circle obtained when the Earth's equator is projected onto the sky is called the celestial equator.

Equator: "Rivers of the Sun" The mighty Amazon River is the lifeblood of the jungle. For half a year, freshwater fish flourish in floodwaters that rise among the trees and then, as the waters retreat, these fish face a six-month drought. The enduring Amazon is both a time capsule for ancient animals and a hothouse for the evolution of new species.

Is walking the line on the Equator harder than anywhere else?
http://mocomi.com/ presents : Why is it so hot near the Equator - Geography Videos for Kids Countries, towns and cities located around the equator experience hot weather throughout the year. It is because the sun remains almost directly overhead everyday. Countries that are further North or South of the equator experience a change in seasons, when hot weather follows cold weather. Living near the Equator – In places near the equator the sun’s rays are almost directly overhead thus keeping temperatures high. Living in places with seasons – Countries like United Kingdom and Korea, which are further North and South from the equator experience a change of four seasons. Living far from the Equator – In the Antarctic, the sun’s rays strike the Earth at a very low angle and this is why the c...

There is a profound connection between Nazca and Angkor Wat. Were these two ancient sites on the old equator at opposite ends of the earth? Other sites on this proposed old equatorial line might hold the answer. Charles Hapgood advocated the Earth crust displacement theory in a book entitled The Path of the Poles. Hapgood supported this theory with geomagnetic and carbon dated evidence. In a book entitled When the Sky Fell, Rose and Rand Flem-Ath also advocate the Earth crust displacement theory, with additional geological and archeological evidence. Both of these works conclude that the North Pole was located in the Yukon, at 63° N 135° W, approximately 80,000 to100,000 years ago. This is about 250 miles Northeast of the axis point for the line of ancient sites at 59° 42' N 139° 17' W....
Where is the equator? Is it here, running through Mexico, or here, running through Peru? It's actually neither. The equator runs through Brazil, Kenya, and Indonesia and traces on the plane right in the middle of the two poles. But as you can probably suspect, the answer to "where is the equator" isn't quite so simple. The equator bulges and moves with the Earth. Surprised? Watch the video to learn more!

the equators live
Pert equation
Cosmetic fixation
It's overtaking the nation
Cosmetic fixation
It's such a sick situation
Is her hair real blonde
Are her legs real long
Does she look real foxy on the party lawn
You pretend your love is true
But she's just a symbol of success to you
Cosmetic fixation
We pursue it with a dedication
Cosmetic fixation
You know we use it like medication
You got the foreign car
With the phone and bar
And the license plate says who you are
You pretend you're satisfied
Yes, but it's only there to stroke your pride
We're so concerned about keeping up appearances
And all the while we ravage our humanity
We're so annoyed with the Truth's interferences
And real values get sacrificed to vanity
Cosmetic fixation
It's overtaking the nation
Cosmetic fixation
You know we treat it like a great vocation
You got your house on the hill
Your Jacuzzi's filled
And the Dom Perignon is nicely chilled
It's like all those magazine
But in the end it doesn't mean a thing
