Want your sign to be a wombat or a llama? As you may know there are different types of astrology. Chinese, Mayan, Vedic, along with the earliest in Babylon. These are all in the Northern Hemisphere. The Incas did have a 20 sign type. I don't know of any Australian astrology. The constellations in the southern skies were named mainly by Europeans. |

Can trees from the Southern I remember when I was in
middle school, a teacher told
me trees in the Southern
Hemisphere cannot be
transplanted into the Northern
Hemisphere (and be expected to
survive) because of the
rotation of the trees in the
hemispheres.
I was wondering if this is a
fact.
Please include SOURCES to
verify or negate the above.
Thank you all in advance!

There are many eucalyptus trees growing happily in the northern hemisphere. You find evidence in every garden centres and in many gardens. Other trees I have personally grown very successfully include Araucaria (both Monkeypuzzle and A. araucana). During the time of the British empire people have brought back trees and other plants to Britain, many of those are still here, I never heard any of them complain about the earth rotation. I think your teacher was pulling your leg. |

Why is it summer in the Why is it summer in the
Northern Hemisphere when it is
winter in the Southern
Hemisphere?
The Northern Hemisphere is
tilted toward the Sun and
receives more direct sunlight.
The Northern Hemisphere is
closer to the Sun than the
Southern Hemisphere.
The Northern Hemisphere is
tilted away from the Sun and
receives more indirect
sunlight.
The Northern Hemisphere is "on
top" of Earth and therefore
receives more sunlight.
It isn't: both hemispheres
have the same seasons at the
same time.
