More About meridians
Meridians have been used for a long time. People made maps with them long ago. They help us know where we are. They are like lines that go up and down the Earth.
In our daily lives, we use meridians to tell time. When it is noon here, it is not noon everywhere. Meridians help us know the time in other places.
In the future, we will still use meridians. They will help us with new maps and tech. It is fun to learn about how the world works!
