What is celestial?

Celestial refers to anything related to the sky, stars, planets, and space. It is also commonly used to refer to things that are divine or heavenly. The word celestial comes from the Latin word "caelestis" which means heavenly or sky.

Celestial objects are the things that exist in the sky, such as stars, planets, moons, and comets. They can be observed using telescopes or even with the naked eye, and have fascinated humans since ancient times.

Celestial navigation is the technique of using the stars to determine the position of a ship or aircraft. It has been used for thousands of years, and is still used today by sailors and pilots who use the stars to navigate across the oceans or through the skies.

Celestial events, such as eclipses and meteor showers, are rare and spectacular occurrences that capture the public's imagination. These events are sometimes associated with myths and legends, and have inspired artists and writers for centuries.

Celestial bodies, such as planets and stars, are also studied by astronomers and astrophysicists to learn more about the universe and our place in it. They use telescopes and other instruments to study the properties and movements of celestial objects, and to answer questions about the history and future of the universe.
