Diurnal motion can be seen in stop motion photography.
2.
Similarly, atmospheric tides arise from, for example, non-uniform solar heating associated with diurnal motion.
3.
In 1851, he provided an experimental demonstration of the rotation of the Earth on its axis ( diurnal motion ).
4.
Posidonius's orrery, according to Cicero, exhibited the diurnal motions of the sun, moon, and the five known planets.
5.
The orientation of the disk of the Moon, as related to the horizon, changes throughout its diurnal motion and the parallactic angle changes equivalently.
6.
Since the Earth is constantly rotating, telescopes and equipment are rotated in the opposite direction to follow the apparent motion of the stars overhead ( called diurnal motion ).
7.
When we observe the sky, the Sun, Moon, and stars appear to move from east to west because of the rotation of Earth ( so-called diurnal motion ).
8.
Stars far from a celestial pole appear to rotate in large circles; stars located very close to a celestial pole rotate in small circles and hence hardly seem to engage in any diurnal motion at all.
9.
Directly above the 24 hour dial is the dial of the Primum Mobile, so called because it reproduces the diurnal motion of the stars and the annual motion of the sun against the background of stars.
10.
Solar time is measured by the apparent diurnal motion of the Sun, and local noon in apparent solar time is the moment when the Sun is exactly due south or north ( depending on the observer's latitude and the season ).
